Safe to say that this hasn't been seen here before...
it's a 30j Buren micro-rotor from 1965. Buren, as some of you know, patented the first micro-rotor automatic watch movement (the intra-matic) in 1954. They licensed the technology to companies such as Bulova and Hamilton. Universal Geneve also debuted a m...
You always have something great to share!

Furthermore...
this topic is actually remarkably rich, given that the Buren/Hamilton consortium was also in the thick of a race to produce the first automatic chronograph. And on that matter, there is a rich, and very interesting source of information. Just follow this ...
And an authoritative source...
from page 56 of "Watchtime", October 2006, article Power or Aesthetics, by Gisbert L. Brunner: "... Eleven months later, Universal requested patent protection for a similar construction, the so-called Polerouter. Negotiations were successful, and Universa...
