The second watch we have is of an unknown maker. All it say on the face is "Swiss". It is 18K gold and looks to be hand filigreed on both the watch and band. It's face measures 1/2" by 7/8", and the body of the watch is 3/4" by 1 and 1/4" long. The words Blaspe or Plaspe appear on the clasp near the watch body, as well as the 18K and what appears to be the letters "AT2". We cant quite make that out, even with a loop. It has 4 saphires and 4 full cut diamonds around the face, and we think the knob also has a saphire in it. Wondering about the history and maker of this piece as well as the possible value. Thanks for all you do! Patrick

Looks like a "Generic Swiss" piece, probably 1920s. Value is that of the gold & stones, you will need a jeweler to determine the exact amout.
