The Bidlingmaier 1160/1 watch movement, produced from 1955 to 1960, showcases several notable features. It incorporates an excenter regulator for stud carrier, facilitating precise timekeeping. Additionally, it adopts a patented double-excenter winding mechanism with jewelled rollers, ensuring efficient winding. The movement incorporates a jewel-bearing rotor for enhanced durability. Notably, by integrating an intermediate wheel between the minute pinion and the rest of the train, the design achieves a larger balance and a lower profile while maintaining robustness. This configuration also allows the placement of the seconds wheel either in the center or as a sub-second without modifications. Furthermore, the watch movement is automatic, features a sub-second hand, and possesses a date function that can be set by altering the time between 20:45 and 24:00.
