Reply To: how old is my watch

By having a silver case there should be a hallmark, this will be the easiest way to date it otherwise I would think somewhere between 1880 and 1920, bear in mind I am no expert. It has a swiss cylinder movement, this would have been sold as an “ebauche” and then finished by the company it was sold to, sometimes watchmakers and sometimes jewellers who employed watchmakers for this type of finishing.
