H. C. Wey was born in Germany in 1843. His family came to America when he was 7. He died in Wichita, Kansas in 1913. He owned hardware and implement stores in Kansas and Oklahoma.
What you have is a watch fob put out as an advertising item by his company. I would guess that it dates to the latter half of the 19th century.
