Silver pocket watch

[famous turtle treasures]

I found this watch at a thrift store I went to. I paid $20.00 for it.

I could tell it was silver without even looking at the stamps.

I know nothing about pocket watches, I was just checking out the links from the reference thread, and I think I may have to start learning more about them they are so amazing.

Anyways the back panel has the 0.800 a box with either a B & H, B & B or H & H, I am not sure, then there is a T under that.

The gear panel is marked swiss B & H , metal stamped on it, 777 and the T under it.

The face panel has the same.

The etched picture on the front looks middle eastern to me.

Any info would be appreciated.

I don't know anything about watches, but from what I am gathering the .800 is probly 80% or 800/1000 silver

Either take it to a jeweler or very carefully get access to the workings. These should be marked in some way and give you an idea of maker.
