Description
Unknown British? Pocket watch. Case is silver and the moverment I think is brass, but I am not entirely certain. I don't know anything about it, other than my grandfather purchased it in London some time shortly after I was born in 1964. The face is white with Roamn numerals, and the numbers 37257 across the face above the hands. The watch opens 4 ways, and has numerous silver marks in two areas inside the case, both in the movement cover and on the back cover. There are intitials J.B. or J.R. and the #43 inside one of the covers. The back of the movement has some ornate floral work. It winds and and appears to work well. I would really like to know what it is, where it came from, and what the potential value is. I may be willing to part with it.

My Grandfather purchased this somewhere in London right after I was born in 1964. Supposedly it was around 200 years old when he did. That is unfortunately all I really know about it.
