Well found on the pocket watch. Congrats
If you clean up the works you might be able to get a # or maker ID.

Nifty fine. Not a Timex I take it as it took a licking and did stop ticking. Thanks for posting and have a great next outing!

Welcome to Tnet. Good find on the watch. The other item is the back plate from a US Army belt buckle. The 'RAU' mark is for the Rau Fastener Company of Providence, Rhode Island, who made them during WWII through to the 1960s.
