Item 130478264681 is from Favre’s Primrose line. Same setting works vs Mike’s above (but complete); same front plate mark style. A 1920s version, so now with identical click and stud carrier to the Guild era 126 mentioned above. Not marked for US export, so no jewel or adj count. Front plate sn E 87.
And item 202656630873 (ended, mislisted as Wiittnauer) is an earlier version, 15J, 3adj, parts like Mike’s. Possibly same batch: front plate sn A 276, with “A” in same place (location may indicate rollover to new series).
My two caveats:
1) I'm wrong many times a day --just ask my wife!
2) Always seeking to learn more
