Found this thing the other day hunting with merc and drew on a short little get together hand shake hunt. It's kinda neat and well built in heavy what looks like brass. Would be way kool if it were some kinda clock ? Any idea?

My guess would be some sort of combination or paddle lock. Takers?
I tweaked one (below). Don't have a clue.

Not sure.

But I'm not really sure.
