I have a pocket watch that has been in the family for a few generations. There are a few different stories about how we came to possess it and what it is, and how old it is. All family stories are I'm sure woefully innacurate so I won't repeat them. My guess is possibly european mid 1800s but I have no idea.
I did have the item appraised for just the gold weight in 2009 and it was appraised at around 2,800 for gold value, but I was hoping to find out when/where it was made.
The dial is engraved with the scene of a little town, and the back has a non-descript shield looking emblem on it (railroad?).
