This watch has a new owner and most likely has since passed to yet another person?

Thanks again @Seiji and
@joeshoup for the info you shared about the era and the watch.
I’ll have to share my own 18k Longines cased
Nacib Djezvedjian Constantinople watch from the late 1920s- it is one of a kind.

No modern watch will ever have this kind of charm and beauty, great, she has been living a long and excited life up to today.

It's lovely! I'm going to have to chase a Djezvedjian watch next time I'm in Istanbul...
