It's supposed to look like brass or maybe bronze. What's the bottom like? The copyright symbol suggests modern & mass produced. Last bit could...
Slight revision. Think there's a space there: ФАБ. ВѢ ТУЛА Question is now what Tula maker does ВѢ stand for? It may all just mean Made in Tula.
I did not spend time looking at them all. You may want to explore that page further to see if you can find one that is even closer.
Do you know whether the watch runs? If not, may no longer be a reason for it to be detachable & to have a leash, just left as a decorative...

Does this get the writing (allowing for font)? фАБ. ВѢтуліо Would be transliterated Fab. Vetulio, I think. It definitely uses one or more...
[ATTACH] First bit looks like 'Fab.' to me, so have to guess a word related to 'fabricate' & meaning 'made by' or 'factory'. See anything here...
Maybe Vandoria?
