Traveller II Movement
Lets have a look at the movement :
Ref. 4940 case back
Behind the solid case back, there is a carefully finished movement
Nice details with blued screws.
I would have assumed that it is based on an A. Schild movement, that has been used on other watches with second time zone and alarm. I remember that there was a Maurice Lacroix around which also featured alarm and time zone. Also the crown position was identic.
Does anyone have detail information about the movement?

Caliber 2291
thanks for the photos. Inside the modern Traveller II is caliber 2291. It is indeed based on an A. Schild caliber. Here is a link to an older post from PeterCDE: CC
thanks a lot for the link ...
..interesting to see the photo on the magazine and the information, that the movement base dates back to 1978. It is just great that we can still revert back to the posts from 10 years ago, isn't it? Best Stefan
Thank you for sharing theses movement shots, Stefan! :)
Not often we have the chance to see the inside of this one! Yes, AS-based. but reworked, decorated and assembled by GP. Best Blomman
most welcome, blomman. It was a pleasure for me..
...to see the movement as well. I have seen it only once before, when a watchmaker opened it for servicing. That is a while ago....so I thought it is worthwile to make the effort. Best Stefan
Thank you for your effort, Stefan!
To see "under the hood" is always fun! :) Best Blomman
