One of the Few In-House Guys


putting aside the Cal 12 / Cal 14s, etc., this is one of the few in-house movements in my collection. I am certain that it is (a) the only zenith that I own, and (b) the only display back in my collection.

continuing David's theme of re-using posts / images, this is also the second time that I have posted this photo in the last two hours.

: "In House Movements" Theme *LINK*

: In Response To: Too quiet in here, time to
: buzz the forum! (Chicagoland Chuck Maddox)

: Three Beauties. I was wondering in regards to
: the electric if Lemania made those types of
: movement but concluded they did or you would
: have broken the theme of "In House
: Movements". Well, to be 100% honest,
: it's quite possible that the Lemania quartz
: isn't an in-house movement, but I've never
: seen another firm use that one (although
: Omega had prototypes, they never sold any),
: and it would have been a first for
: Lemania...

: When one thinks about it there just aren't
: many of them around at least in the middle
: of the pack. I own about 50 watches ranging
: up to 50+ years old. I can identify only one
: with an "In House Movement". It
: was pictured earlier today in the forum so I
: am getting great mileage out of that post.
: Oh, you are incorrect my friend... I
: believe that you own at least one other
: In-House chronograph...

: It's initials are E-O-G... It's movement is an
: Excelsior Park 40-68 which was a product of
: the firm who made the watch...

: You also have to have some sort of Micro-Rotor
: chronograph, Heuer was part of the
: consortium that developed it, so I'd
: probably give that movement an in-house
: waiver...

: Ok, now lets hear about all those other
: "In House Movements" we
: participants have. I have to run... I'll
: post some more (Zenith's mainly) when I get
: the chance... -- Chuck
