 +====== 10 WA ======
 +Calibre **10 WA** is a modular [[alarm movement]] from [[Wittnauer]] produced in the 1950's.
 +
 +Unlike integrated alarm movements from [[Vulcain]] and [[Jaeger-LeCoultre]], Wittnauer added an alarm module to an existing movement, the [[Longines]]-based Cal. 10.
 +
 +The Wittnauer alarm calibre is notable for its unique features 
 +
 +  * The alarm module includes its own [[barrel]] in the module rather than the main calibre
 +  * The alarm is wound and set using a rotating [[bezel]] rather than an added [[crown]] or [[pusher]]
