The dial features a brushed silver finish, enhanced by applied rectangular hour markers with a golden appearance. The visible hands, also gold-colored, have a simple and clean shape. The inscription \"ANKER\" appears at the top of the dial, while \"17 JEWELS INCABLOC\" is clearly visible in the lower part. This movement is presented without a case or strap, as shown in the photo. The knurled crown is positioned on the right and appears to be original, matching the rest of the mechanism. The dial shows a patina of use, typical of old mechanical watches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe texture of the dial is highlighted by radial reflections, accentuating the vintage look of this timepiece. The gold-colored hour markers and hands contrast with the silver surface, ensuring good legibility. The movement is photographed in a wooden box, on a white cushion, which enhances its details and reliefs. No case or back is visible on this piece, so it is a bare movement ready to be restored or used for repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe inscriptions \"17 JEWELS\" and \"INCABLOC\" indicate a 17-jewel mechanism with a shock-absorbing system, a prized feature in 20th-century mechanical watchmaking. The whole shows visible wear, including micro-scratches on the dial and some age-related marks, without compromising the vintage aesthetic of the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe style of the dial, the raised hour markers, and the Incabloc mention are typical of mechanical watches produced between the 1960s and 1970s. This Anker movement is therefore representative of this period, both in its design and its manufacturing technique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe visible side shows no major structural defects, but the piece displays signs of use and age, consistent with its estimated age. No other accessories or watch elements are included; the sale is only for the photographed movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
