Re: Need info on pocket watches
I have what I believe to be my maternal grandfathers pocket watch. I doubt that it is an expensive watch as my grandparents were not wealthy and immigrated to this country from Nova Scotia in the mid 1800s. The name on the face of the watch is "Illinois". The diameter is 1 5/8" The front cover has a small engraved picture of a mountain town surrounded by a lot of filigree. The back side has a picture on a 6 point buck standing by a lake with mountains in the background, also surrounded by a lot of filigree. Can anyone tell me anything about this watch?
