Found a Westclox Scotty pocket watch at a 1940s home site today. I took the back off and it has the year made stamped on the back of it as being 1952. This correlates with my research. It is in poor condition but was still a neat find for me. Its the first pocket watch I've found. Thanks for looking and HH! 20161007_192829.jpg

Congratulations on your first pocket watch. Research pays off once again.
 

Too bad it wasn't a Timex. It would have taken a licken and kept on ticken. Actually all the ones I have found have been dead so that slogan isn't true.

Nice old watch. Hope you can scare up some more old items.
 

Very cool! We want to find one! Congrats. -Lisa & John
 

Thanks, Lisa & John. I hope you dig one up soon. It sure did give me a screaming signal on the AT Pro.
 

Congrats on your first pocket watch KDQ. I know with my detectors, those things ring up like there is a car buried in the ground !
 

Awesome watch recovery! :occasion14:
 

Thanks Sutphin, Professor!

Thanks! Haha you are right about the signal. It was so loud I actually had to turn down my headset when I found it :)
