Hello all,
I found a nice old Waltham pocket watch yesterday, and after doing some research realized I can not find out anything about it's value or manufacturing date without getting the back off, and seeing the serial # and other info.
From what I read, it says you get the back off by turning it counter-clockwise and in essence un- screwing it. Well as I'm sure you've realized I cant get it to budge. I was wondering if anyone has had any similar experiences with treasure hunted pocket watches, and if so, how did you get the back cover freed up?
