Looking at the Worthy company of watchmakers book it is one of the convertible round bascine models the difference between them is the size of the movement. 10.5 ligne makes it a plate 41. Convertible expansion wrist - bascine style. In the pricelist from MikeTheWatchGuy type C12.

And.... not so nice on the floor Sad

First time I used this kind of strap. Tip of the day. When it is not hooked on tight enough, when you unclip one side it might fell of completely from the strap. And a broken crystal doesnt look great.

Arghh sorry to hear that. Hopefully you can source a new crystal. I can look and see what I have, I believe I have the same convertible.

Its like toast with peanut butter that falls down. Anyway, not my first broken crystal. And for sure not the last.

I will try to source one. I have enough glue Very Happy and if I wont manage, the watchmaker in my city will. But might be cheaper to buy another convertible Laughing

Sadly, I agree! But I'm sure I have one if you need it. Again, the shipping... might be cheaper to buy another!
