Have any of you seen this before? Is it a pocket watch that someone made into a wrist watch? The image is not the best but it says Universal Watch. The back opens and it's stamped 18K, It has a circular stamp with Universal Watch and UW in the center an below that is 511840.
I appreciate you help. Hello, I have not had any luck doing research on the internet.

I have the exact same watch in my collection! It is a very early Universal Geneve chronograph, probably around 1925.

Amazing! Do you have any idea what it's worth? I'm thinking of selling it.

It is going to depend a lot on condition, anywhere from $1400 to $3000.
