·I'm going ashtray... if you google there are quite a few examples... from the days when sparking up a Dunhill whilst buying a time piece was acceptable. 😉

Is it no longer acceptable? I must have missed the memo. But those trays are much cooler than mine.

No judgement here... but smoking inside a public building in the UK has been against the law for several years now. 😉

··ΩF InvestiGatorAt first, I though ashtray also. However, on a closer look, it seems that there is no place to securely rest a cigarette. Like this one:
The other two both look like valets to me.

·Gents,
It is a fairly big bowl, lots of things might fit.
Since I am somewhat well-known in the field of the French Revolution, I might well enlighten your days, in stating that this bowl actually is used as a very handy bowl in the people’s festivities of beheading the gentry of those days.
To cut it short (pun intended), this bowl was placed in such a way, to catch the ‘loose’ head. Color of the bowl is the actual give-away.
This pic might help to visualise.
Omega was in those early days in a fierce combat with the –since then obscure- French watch-industry. Omega considered this a crown (....) on its work.

·I'm completely set on it being an 18th century breast feeding bowl, because it will be the weirdest yet absolute coolest item I own. It also opens the door for some really terrible and akward pickup lines / conversation starters.
I actually had to google what a breast feeding bowl even is. i have to say, it was a much easier research project than finding out what that old rusty watch is that grandpa left you. 👍
