    I was told it’s a 50’s vintage pocket watch convert. Anybody know anything about it? A42DAF42-C31E-43F1-A092-D226170471D4.jpeg

    Looks like a Ukraine job from 2018. Custom case, dial, hands and old pocket watch movement. Do you have a photo of the movement?

    Hello, and welcome to the forum. You have what is known as a marriage watch, where an old pocket watch is placed in a shiny new case and given a fantasy dial, new hands and converted into a wristwatch. Search on the interwebs for "marriage watch" to see other examples. Some folks like these fantasy watches (and there is an entire cottage industry that produces them) but on a watch collectors forum such as this one, these pieces are not held in high regard.

    True for everything, including 2915-1s.
