Hi All,
Thought this was an interesting one to share. Recent, very cheap purchase. It is an ETA 1080 movement with dial labeled GFC Besancon. I know from internet that Besancon is a French watch making city/center. It needed a stem, crown and detente lever and is now running nicely. Nice heavy case too. I was surprised to find a stamp on the back of the dial - Cadra Lux-Besancon. Anyone see these brandings before - GFC, Cadra Lux?
