I could be wrong..... (shock!).... but I think the restrictions on image size are based on pixel count rather than file size. I make my images 800 x 1200 (or so) and have never had issues with detail or upload. I see the image you have is ~2600 x 2600, which is a large image at 96 dpi.

As to the movement.... that is pretty cool looking. BUT... I do not see any Gruen markings. Am I missing it?

I turned up this watch a while back, and haven't been able to find anything even remotely similar looking. I was wondering if anyone had seen something like it sometime?

It's about a 16 size.

If I could find the maker, maybe I could repair it. It has a broken center wheel pinion.

Okay, I've shrunk my pictures for the forum frequently, and I have to ask - why is it never the same size restriction? Last week it was 1.5 MB, now it's 1 MB. Previously it was 2 MB. Why can't it just be one thing? Now I have to go resize my already-resized files and I'm annoyed.

All I know is based on hard work & writing by others. I can only aspire to augment this body of knowledge. If I am wrong it is because of my own failings. -me
