Great thread & great pics - sadly the only one I have with a display back is the Reverso, picture borrowed from JLC website.
Not as far as I know, I wrote to Ebel but they were unable to give me any information other than the year...1940
What I did find out, the watch had been posted here in a thread in 2009 (I think)

Here's an early Valjoux.72 movement from my (circa) 1946 Heuer.
Much like a classicly beautiful woman - aged but still very attractive.

Thought they may have been more of these;

Those Seiko movements are seriously honest to jaysus. No messing, simple and functional.
I forgot to add my bomb proof;

Neither of them what you could call beautiful, but both classics of form and function:

and a Cal 283 30mm from 1953

Early 90's Tissot 2-hand dress watch. It's only 30mm wide, but still manages to be more spacer than movement. Not even sure why I have a photo of this, come to think of it. :jaded:
