Dan,

this completes the picture, perfect finding!
Looks like V&C made the ebauche which built the base to the movement made by Cattin for Gruen. Often we are stuck with the ebauche and we cannot find out which factory made a complete movement out of it. Here we have a complete supply chain.
And as Matt stated: Gruen wins Smile
