that one is really different, like a cross over pocket/wrist watch. Any markings on it?
ZDD

Nice find Petrie502. See if you can pull off the back cover - maybe their are some letters, etc. to help ID that puppy.

That is an early wristwatch case, circa 1905. They took 0'size pocket watch cases and soldered wire lugs on them and made the first wristwatches. The case and movement were sold separately usually people chose a low jeweled either Waltham or Elgin movement. The cases were very often silver but it appears that yours is plated brass.
