Re: C.M. Schwarz Tura
Think I have a version of this in a rather plain case but with a complete mech.

It shows the value of last profit.

Re: C.M. Schwarz Tura
My understanding is that the prototypes were Mills mechs. The idea being that they did the project work. However why I think that I have no idea, I might have read it somewhere or I might just have simply made it up.mastereddy69 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 10, 2019 2:46 pmAnd is it true that the mechanisms of a Tura were made by Mills or is that not true?

Re: C.M. Schwarz Tura
It`s not easy to answer that question. I had some discussions with other collectors in the past.
I think Tura used Mills parts, as far they were available, and complete with own parts. Missing parts were produced in Germany.
There were different workshops in the Tura factory building:
Paintshop, joinery, electroplating, metal punch. A lot of work was done by external factories, all castings for example.
There were some German manufacturers who used Mills (and other) machines to build their „own“ product.
For example some stripes for the typical Mills reels: Tura (Schwarz) in paper, Coppel (F.Coppel) in sheet metal:
