Lasita 17 jewels Swiss Made Incabloc watch movement white dial parts

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description Mechanical watch movement from the Lasita brand, visible in the photo, intended for parts recovery or watch restoration. The round dial features a matte white finish, with raised gold Arabic numerals and black hands. The inscription "Lasita" is clearly legible below the number 12, accompanied by the mention "17 RUBIS INCABLOC" in the lower center of the dial, and "SWISS MADE" at the bottom, confirming the Swiss origin of the movement. The bezel is not visible; only the front part of the mechanism and dial is shown.

The dial shows a slight patina and some signs of wear, including a visible stain between the numbers 7 and 6, as well as small traces of oxidation or friction around the edge. The hour markers and hands are present, with no apparent chipping on the front face. The inscriptions are clear and legible, typical of quality Swiss mechanical watches, with "17 rubies" indicating the use of synthetic rubies as bearings for the mechanism.

The movement is set in a decorative element resembling a gilded base or box, adorned with floral motifs and sculpted raised elements, but these elements appear to be purely decorative and not part of the movement itself. No case back, crown, or strap is visible in the photo; therefore, it is only the dial/movement portion.

The style of the dial and numbers evokes a classic aesthetic, likely mid to late 20th century, with no elements allowing for a more precise period to be stated. The item is intended for use as a lot of spare parts for watchmakers, DIY enthusiasts, or restorers, or for a watch reassembly project.

The mention "INCABLOC" indicates the presence of a balance wheel shock absorption system, characteristic of quality Swiss movements, aiming to protect the mechanism against shocks.

Condition Used item, sold as is. Shows signs of wear, stains on the dial, and small marks visible on the surface. Untested, sold strictly for parts or restoration.

Did you know? The Incabloc system, invented in Switzerland in 1934, is one of the most widely used shock-absorbing devices in mechanical watchmaking. It protects the balance wheel pivots, a key component of the movement, against accidental shocks and improves the longevity of mechanical watches.
