✨ Rare Vintage LOUIS Swiss 17 Jewel Ladies Watch Movement 💎 Estate Fresh Discovery
From the estate of a top Rolls-Royce engineer who owned millions in rare worldwide collectibles comes another authentic mechanical treasure with true vintage appeal. Many pieces from this remarkable estate were acquired in Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Pakistan, with some never commonly seen in the United States. This is exactly the kind of untouched estate-find that collectors, restorers, and watchmakers love to uncover.
This listing is for a genuine vintage LOUIS ladies manual-wind Swiss watch movement with original signed dial and crown still present. I examined the photos very carefully. The dial is clearly marked LOUIS and 17 JEWELS and features a classic silver-tone face with raised Arabic numerals, a compact tonneau-shaped ladies layout, and original gold-tone hands still attached. The overall look is elegant, simple, and distinctly mid-century.
The movement side is clearly marked LOUIS WATCH CO INC, SEVENTEEN 17 JEWELS, and SWISS. Multiple visible ruby-colored jewels can be seen throughout the movement, along with the original regulator assembly and clean compact Swiss mechanical architecture. This is exactly the kind of signed vintage Swiss ladies movement that appeals to parts buyers, restoration specialists, and collectors of smaller mechanical watches. Current market activity shows Louis Watch Co Swiss 17-jewel movements and related watches continue to trade in the vintage parts-and-repair category. 
Condition is exactly as shown in the photos. This is a loose movement only and is not a complete wearable watch. There is no full outer case, no crystal, and no band or bracelet. The dial shows visible age, spotting, discoloration, scratches, edge wear, and estate-storage wear. The movement shows normal vintage wear and light grime consistent with age. The crown is present. I have not tested long-term timekeeping accuracy, service history, or exact running condition, so it is being sold as-is for parts, repair, restoration, or display. No returns on watches.
