I do not see what that could be. There are some minor resemblances to the JLC Caliber 208, but I'm pretty sure that's not it.

Thank you for your answer; Yes it seems like but sure it is not cal.208. This one has a oval with 4500 stamped inside near the balance bridge (never saw this type of marking on JLC). On the other hand, it was not unusual for english manufacturers (of that time) to use JLC calibers. For example Smiths of Cricklewood London with M1 car clock (cal.208); Sadly I do not have any info regarding swiss made calibers used by Sestrel. I hope that with forum help, I will find the correct answer.
