[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 1618785, member: 25"]Movements and cases were as far as I know almost always made by different makers. Exceptions would be ultra rare and specialised. Movements were made in standard sizes, easily adaptable to the depth of the case. Dial names were usually retailers, who may have made the cases, but usually not. Names stamped on movements do usually refer to the movement maker. Carriage clocks were usually the exception, where case and movement were made by a specified maker. There are no fixed rules, just patterns.[/QUOTE]
