Quartz movement
From thewatchforum.co.uk
"The first volume movement was the cal570, a conventional looking quartz movement, well executed and rather similar to its contemporary Orient cal52950 - perhaps a sign of cooperation or plagiarism between the two companies. Watches with this movement date from the start of 1974 to perhaps 1976."
