Need some help dating. Pretty corroded and not able to find any dates or markings. Is there somewhere I can find clues on this? Thanks!

the small window in the case indicates it's a Demi-Hunter style. The window allowed the hands to be partially seen without the need to open the case fully. One web site I've read says that the feature was more common in foreign made (swiss, for example) watches. I doubt there's any way to get an accurate date or maker from the rusted bits you have. I would imagine it's at least 120 years old

Thanks for the info. Really wish I could find a serial number but it's so broken down.
