    I've found this old plaque which must have been made for display at authorized Dealers:

    It can stand and behind it's written "Huguenin Locle" (the Producer) and "Made in Switzerland".

    Can anyone help me dating this Plaque?

    Very cool piece, Philipp! I am not familiar with this shield. Do you have any information regarding the symbolism of the star and the crecent moon?

    Hi Ben

    No, I don't know anything about the meaning of this shield, but I've found a watch which comes with box and warranty with the same sign:

    It says, the watch is from ca. 1948. So I guess, my plaque was also used in that time.

    I'm pretty sure (but have no documentary proof), this was a display shield for AD in the 1950ies, I have an identical piece.
