admin,
Note the Case width across the face at the Crown and the curved lugs.
Not the same as the unknown.
Unknown has a 10AL movement.
Wayne,
These can't both be a Templan (?)

I wouldn't say can't on this one! An alternative would be Templan Skinny & Templan Fat. LOL

The case design is exact. What is the issue?
It's a later model Templan.
Templan it is.
2nd Version below also dated 1929 - narrower Case with identical engraving ,15 Jewel 13 AF.
ID to be changed to 'CRUSADOR'
'TEMPLAN' is the skinny Case.
...this demonstrates the utility of case measurements in the root record. Great find. I've got what we thought was a Templan. Don't know if I included case measurements, but I'll make sure mine is in the database and add case measurements if they are not there already. I think mine is the wider version of the two....so that would be the Crusador... Good stuff!
We do the very best We can do with the information at Hand.....what a difference a Day makes.
