<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 497151, member: 2844&quot;]Lovely set, wisc. Beautiful watch case, and I always love Algerian knots, like you have on the pin. They are also called love knots.</p><p><br /></p><p>As the others said, it is a ladies&#039; full hunter pocket watch.</p><p>Watch lockets are lockets that look like watch cases on the outside but contain no watch. Like my locket, which is on a watch chain to complete the deception.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=";)" unselectable="on" /> These were often worn tucked into a broad waistband, or a small pocket in the band:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]163935[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Agree, yours and Bronwen&#039;s are hunter pocket watches, which typically have the hinge at 9 o&#039;clock and the stem at 3 o&#039;clock.</p><p>Regular pendant watches or fob watches (like nurse&#039;s watches) are exactly upside down, the 12 down and the 6 up. You don&#039;t need to open the case, but just flick it up to see the time or to time something.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
