AboutBill and Sally Jarrett Expertise We are collectors, hobbyists and dealers in memorabilia and antiques - especially antique vintage and costume jewelry items. For 10 years we owned an antique shop here in Central Florida but retired and reopened a site on the internet that specializes mostly in antique jewelry and accessories such as perfume bottles, etc. Bill is informed on general antiques specializing in china and silver or sterling tablewares while Sally tends to jewelry and paper/advertising ephemera. We receive a lot of general questions from our site and would be glad to try and answer or give direction not considered for official appraisal purposes, i.e. estate or insurance.
Experience 10 years as antique shop owners
8 years as a jewelry designer supplying designs
to Walt Disney World, Universal Studios and MGM as well
well as other limited outlets.
Hello. I am a member of the Pilgrims Hospice eBay team and we have been donated a watch to auction. On the inside of the back are marks and numbers that I am unable to identify. We have had a close up picture made and we like to know if we could email it to you for your kind help. Thank you.
Answer Hello Sylvia and thank you for your inquiry. Unfortunately pocket watches are not my real expertise. However, I did find a web page that may be of some assistance to you. Just copy and paste the below url into your browser address field and hit enter.
Eventhough the picture showed the inside marks well, not being familiar with the markings made it difficult for me to tell much about. The above page gives some other links that may be helpful - blogs, etc. where you could inquire. Hope this helps and sorry I couldn't be of more assistance on this.
