Patek Philippe

Seeking help identifying this Patek ebauche:

 

While doing a little research, I have come the curiosity about the ebauche used in certain Patek Philippe watches,
specifically the chronograph/calendar complications of around 1937-1956 (and perhaps some even much later).
The ebauche in question seems to have preceeded the present Lemania, and I have seen it described as 13 lignes, Valjoux.
 


The picture above is of a complicated PP from 1943, and the others are all identified as ebauche Valjoux 90, almost
exclusively used in calendar watches by a wide variety of firms during the same period, which look like this:

 

Also, it appears that this same base was used by both PP and Audemars Piguet for Observatory watches:
  

So, do you think that the ebauche for all those fabulous Pateks is in fact the Valjoux 90? Thanks in advance foe any
assistance and additional comments!
