FE 68

Description

The France Ebauches Caliber 68, which was also marked as Dugena 4750, is a very typical ladies' form watch movement of the seventies. In construction and size it is equal to many other movements.

The FE 68 has got an Antichoc shock protection system, is fully jeweled (except the mainspring barrel) and shows hours and minutes.
In other versions, this movement was equipped with an Incabloc shock protection system.
With contemporary modern 21600 beats per hour it achieves sufficient precision.
