Dear all, The parents of my partner found a set of watches in Poland which belonged so some relatives which passed away. It has a set of numbers inscripted on the gear casing: 5809848 Any help would be appreciated, Andrés
The movement dates to the early to mid-1920's. If the case serial number is around 6.5 million, the case would date to the same time period. Case is probably silver, but could also be nickel. It is quite possible that the "spade" hour hand is original to the watch. It would be nice if you could find a match to it for the minute hand. I think the movement is a cal. 26.5SOB.
