The movement has Paul Maillardet Et Fils although I am assured its a swiss movement but which one?

It looks close to a Landeron 149 but its not its hand wind 17 Jewels from late 60s.It has 488 stamped on it under the balance wheel

As I said in PM to the same question.....

I'm not an expert on Wakmann, but the price seems reasonable - not great, not excessive.
