Oh! No! It's crap really. Why don't you get rid of it 😉.
I'm off to bed now but I can chase it up tomorrow.

·You can find a clear and simple introduction on Twitter here. It's in Japanese, but...

This is a clock that was used by the South Manchuria Railway, a railroad company in northeastern China, before World War II.
On the case back, there is the mark of the South Manchurian Railway and the word "吉" written in Japanese kanji.
For more information about the South Manchuria Railway, please refer to this Wiki.

·Cool railroad pocket watch here is my only Seiko with the Seikosha label bet none of you knew they use to make clocks.
This was issued to the Japanese Navy in WW2 photo of one on a Japanese destroyer. Has an eight-day movement.
