Nice pocket watch. The only complete one that I ever found was a real cheap model.
Yours looks to have a nice ceramic face.
 
Wonderful finds Dave |:cheering: Love the pocket watch and interesting to learn about the pump chain parts

I feel so lucky to see all of your cellar hole hunts- don't you DARE ever stop sharing on here! I'd go into shock :shocked04:verreaction: lol
 
If you ever decide to try to open the pocket watch and if the inside are too corroded, give me the serial number and I can give you a good idea of the date of the watch.

im not sure how to open it? theres no little nub to pop the back off? does it unscrew?
 
Nice find on the pocket watch. I can't make out what is on the ornate keyhole escutcheon. Is it a picture of something ?
 
Great bunch of relics, Dave! I love that old pocket watch, WOW! It doesn't look like it's in too bad of shape.

Nice variety of finds! |:cheering:
 
Great stuff, and nice to know about that chain pump piece I found one sans the chain the other day and did not know what it is....and now I do |:cheering:

normally you can take a pocketknife, along the back edge and it would pop off
