I love pocketwatches. I have a 1920s South Bend and a newer modern one that was given to me as well. I use the South Bend when wearing a waistcoat and the modern one out and about if I am a bit more worried about protecting the watch. I am not sure what you have for watch repair around you but I would suggest at least having it looked at and try to have it fixed. These old watches are amazing and not built like the watches of today!!! Is it also missing the crystal? That alone will cost about $50 or so, but you can sometimes find them online cheaper if you can put one in yourself.
Here is my watch with a chain that I rarely use (I have some nicer ones now).
