...at two particular German reference sites (noncommercial) for Glashütte movements; I'll send by PM as I'm not sure about posting them here. You can run them through babelfish or break out your German dictionary! I got interested in the vintage Glashütte...

...as the GUB 60 series was in production from 1952 to 1961. The "1Q" versions of the movements were produced beginning in 1954 and made up about a third of total 60 series production. I believe Dirk kept the wheel train from the GUB 60.x movements and pr...
