The Bettlach 8117 watch movement is a variant of the Record 1955 movement line, which was incorporated into Longines after the acquisition of Record. It is uncertain if the later versions with 21600A/h were also produced as Record calibres. The Bettlach 8117 movement possesses several functions, including automatic winding, a sweep second hand, and a date feature that can be adjusted by changing the time to 19:30-24h. It was predominantly utilized during the period roughly around 1968.
