I think we are coming close to something. Gary, this is a cool find! cal 857 is a 7 3/4 ligne movement but the 1921 catalog shows a different layout.
845 appears to be from Cattin. There is reference to a caliber 843 being 8 ligne without a picture. Would that be our mistery movement?

And Liz, yes, correct also cal 87 has quite some similarities to these movements as I mentioned last Sunday already.
