I was trying to see how it comes apart, do you know if it un-screws or pops off??

Take it to a local watch dealer, Better to be safe than sorry.
 
Hi there. Awesome finds. I'm really interested in the keychain. If you're wanting to sell it please let me know. It's suppose to have a tag on it that would have the name and address. I have the other two of these they made. They made a silver and a gold one. I had no idea they had a brass one. I am very much interested. Idk if you use ebay, but I have a lot of little things that have high value. I metal detect and hit yard sales. Sometimes I just shop on ebay and relist the stuff in the right category and it usually sells fast. Yeah so my email is cmharding@yahoo.com. I set up this account just to ask you about this. Thanks. :)
