Benrus Watch Altersbestimmung nach Werk

BENRUS – movements catalog (description and/or images) | 1920-1945

The list has at base "Benrus - material catalog" (cca. 1945-1947) and "WMDAA catalog - Benrus section" (cca. 1957) and also different specifications made on the passionate forums.
 
As I find them, I will try to attach to each model also an actual picture.
