Question
I have a watch that was made in 1902 it's 14k  white gold and it's made by star watch case co. It has 3 red dots on the inside and I'm wondering if you could tell me anything about this watch. Like the value and anything else...
Thank you,
Russ

Answer
Sorry, I don't do watches nor do I make value judgements, sight unseen.  I will however, volunteer this much.  Star is the maker of the case, not the watch.  To determine who made the watch you will have to remove the back of the case.  Inside, upon the watch movements backplate, you will find the watchmakers name, serial number, probably the number of jewels, adjusted or non-adjusted etc.  Such information would be vital to your research.  Regards WJP
