A few interesting relics

[USMC18]

I found all these relics at 1800s home site. First picture has a dial of some sort with numbers on it. Also pictured is what looks like a very thick, very heavy pocket watch with a porcelain face. Has anybody seen anything like that? And last item appears to be a clip of some sort, maybe chrome plated. It says "Baker" on it. Not sure if that is a company or someone's name. Thanks for looking!

Yeap your pocket watch ID is correct, they had porcelain faces etc. As for the other 2 items I'm at a loss right now.

there was a company called 'Baker' that made tie clips, like this one in sterling silver and from the 1930s:



The lettering style for the branding looks similar to yours, although the 'A' is different. I don't know anything about the company history, nor whether they made clips of other kinds ("Marcel wave" clips for ladies hair or whatever).

On the Baker piece it looks like the hook part slides on the bar. Could it be an adjustable button extender for a pair of pants or something like that?

The first item looks like an old mechanical speedometer or tachometer drive and housing.

Last 2 look similar to a sliding glass lock/latch

Is the bottom left thing leather? Like a cat collar with a bell?

The top left item looks a little like the bottom side of an outdoor water hose mechanism knob?
