Marvin 310 Watch Spare Parts: Specialist Guide for Collectors and Watchmakers
The Marvin 310 is a Swiss manual wind calibre introduced in the 1940s, notable for its solid construction and precise engineering. Designed with a classical layout and a centrally mounted seconds hand, the Marvin 310 features a robust Glucydur screw balance, lever escapement, 15 ruby jewels, and a size of 8¾ ligne (19.3 mm diameter).
