✅ SOLVED Is this from a pocket watch? Any hopes of ID'ing the style or maker?

Piece is made of brass, though tarnished from being in the ground. Best guess on date is 1880-1910 based on site. Posts have screw threads inside them. Smallest holes in piece are under 1mm wide it seems.





Let me know if you have questions.

part of a pocket watch, yes. very doubtful you'd ever get an ID on maker and model

I believe the name of that piece is a "Pillar Plate". You can spend some time viewing on Google
