Hello,
I cannot find information on this beyond an estmated date of production arond 1867. I don't know what to label it for a search. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Jane

It's either an 18 size pocket watch OR a small ship's chronometer, what is written on the movement? The box appears to be it's original shipping container.
