I went up to the neighbour to collect the clocks, and she pulled out a little cardboard box of these watches. I drooled, rather. ;) I'm not taking...
I'm going to get my local friendly auction chap to open it and see it has an inside hallmark. He's a good egg and won't harm it.
I think you're right.
The face is totally undamaged, too.
Oh, same shape! I suspect mine is gold, looking at the back. She had all these bits in a box in the shed. (!)
I can't get it open but I think the case is gold. Not sure the strap is original, it's marked Excalibur. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
You're very welcome.
I like the first one, the wall clock. The dial is handpainted and I suspect it sat in a railway station or a shop. It's so honest.
About three inches. I'll see if I can open it carefully: I tend to leave these as is, if they're fresh to the market, as they say.
And would you believe I've just found the technical term! It's an Ermeto and they seem to get serious money.
Any opinions welcome! [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Same neighbour, sterling silver and working. I can't find one on line, so I'm probably not using the right terms. ;) [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...

OK, I'll do these as separate threads. I'm selling a couple of clocks and some watches for a neighbour, any information appreiciated. These clocks...
Yup, I do, it's very like that.
My first thought was Turkish.
Citrine is a thought. I'll stick the hardness tester on it. Ta!
Native American. The paw and claw marks are a clue.
Isn't it nice: sort of citrine. A keeper.
I'd be looking through NA maker's marks. Mountain lion.
Separate names with a comma.
