"Hafis W. Co.":
The brand name is prominently engraved on one of the movement's bridges. Hafis is a Swiss watch manufacturer known for producing "small anchor timepieces," particularly ladies' watches, since the 1920s
"15 Fifteen Jewels":
This indicates that the movement utilizes 15 jewels, which are synthetic rubies used as bearings to reduce friction and wear on moving parts, enhancing the watch's longevity and accuracy
  • "3 Three Positions":
    This signifies that the watch's accuracy has been adjusted in three different positions (e.g., dial up, dial down, vertical) during its manufacturing, ensuring reliable timekeeping regardless of the watch's orientation.
  • Gears and Components:
    The intricate arrangement of gears, screws, and other components showcases the complexity of a mechanical watch movement. These parts work in harmony to convert the energy from the mainspring into the precise movement of the watch hands.
  • Swiss Made:
    Although not explicitly marked, the "Swiss Made" designation is implied due to the brand's origin and the quality of the movement. 
    • Swiss watchmaking is renowned for its precision and craftsmanship
