Another under $5 flea mkt find that is now ticking away after some minor repairs. You don't see much about these online. Lovely design with crystal and case back forming a nice tight lozenge that case top then fits over. 2 piece stem/crown is not perfect match-but made do with parts on hand.

From Ranft's site, an A Schild model 1158 produced in the 1950's. 10.5 lignes. They look so small now compared to what is being worn lately, most are 13 and way up size.
