Thanks to Oscar for the Correction:

Hard to tell when the movement is not shown in the original photo.

Historical Data about the L15.26:

The 15 Ligne Movement was used in both  ladies pocket watch and early wristwatches and mens wristwatches as well. This is considered to be a small
caliber movement.


However,that being said Caliber L15.26 was a 17 jewel movement,
produced from 1911-1937 and it replaced the porcelain dialed L15.94 of 1904.
The L15.26 was then replaced by the L15.68Z that was used in WWII as a military watch from 1945-47.

Cheers,
Simon
