The A. Schild 1291 watch movement is a manual wind movement with a sub-second function. It features a calendar module and a base plate design similar to the 351 through 364 movements. The day can be set by changing the 24-hour time from 21:20 to 24:00, and the date hand can be adjusted using a pusher at the 2 o'clock position. The movement was commonly used around the 1950s, offering a range of functions essential for timekeeping.
