1. It's a woman's watch of european origin.
2. It is partially deteriorated to the point to suggest it has been there for several decades.
3. In the 1920's-1930's there was a great interest in archaeology in Britain which led to many "weekend archaeologists" to take it upon themselves to explore such sites as a leisurely pursuit. In the case of Egypt, this meant the pillaging of various artifacts as souvenirs.
