I don't understand "Not as known as Tempo".  Do you mean that it is a Tempo, but known by a different name, such as Vidal & Sohn, or Oscar Vidal?

No, I mean that it is from a less known brand than Tempo.

Well done again! It is a Rollfix, probably an Eilwagen from 1928.

Thanks Gerd! 

When you said: "less known brand than Tempo", my first thought was Merkur, but you had already used that one a while back.  To my knowledge that left Rollfix.  Even though several sources say Rollfix didn't operate for ten years, I found one that said they did, so I went with it.

A "hat trick" for my birthday, Yippeee!

According to Metternich (who is quite reliable) Rollfix operated from 1923 to 1937.

At least one has survived. I really like the steering wheel - could also be in a boat:
