I just received an engraved pocket watch from my Father-in-law that belonged to his Father and possibly his Grandfather. It is marked MAR'S or MARS in script. It has black roman numerals with blue numbers from 13 - 24 beneath. and a very nice metal case. The second hand is in a circle at the 6 oclock position with the numbers in black. The watch can be wound and is running but I've been unable to set the minute or hour hands, only because I'm not sure how to. Obviously the back opens but so far I can't get inside. I don't want to do anything that might damage the watch as it isin very good shape. I'm presuming it is from the 40's or earlier?
Can anyone help with some information? Thanks
