Hey CWN, I Googled genuine bronze watch fob to see if I could put a date to it and I can only guess at it. Watch fobs came in all shapes and sizes and even the Civil War ones look newer to me But the best way to guess would be to see what else is found there and what era those items are from. If I had found it, I would probably guess late 1800's to very early 1900's until someone who deals in antiques gave me a better date on it. The shape of it and the words Genuine Bronze may have been used fonly or a specific time frame. So it's just a guess on my part, but that is a real nice watch fob!!
