Time to Dig, Or digging Time!

[pganjon]

Hello all, Did some lunchtime digging and got a quarter lock on the Ace 250. Depth meter was 6-8 and signal stayed locked with no bouncing back and forth. After about 6 inches with such a strong signal, I was starting to think flattened can. Around 8 inches, this came to light and made my day. No info on it from what I can see. I have been tempted to try and open it to see if there is any makers mark on the inside. What do you think? Thanks for looking Paul

If you open it you gotta post pics!!! That is gorgeous! A Pocket watch is on my list of targets but so far no luck.

I also found one in similar condition to yours. I have not opened me yet. Not sure if it would ruin it. Good Luck let me know what you find inside.

Found one similar about a month ago..They were called " dollar" watches because it was cheaper to buy a new one than fix it...i couldn't find a mark on mine hopefully yours will have one.

It looks like a pry open type there should be a makers name on the inside and a movement serial number will tell you when its made. If you look on the web to cross reference it
