Hi Richie,
Not good enough I'm afraid please try again and use a good digital camera with macro mode (tulip function), with daylight without flashlight.
Good luck.

What you see as "m in a square in an oval" is a Glasgow import mark. FD in an oval may be Fulda & David who were watch manufacturers and importers, but please note the "may be". The date letter which you think looks like a g is, I think, an upper case script S, which would be the date code for 1915.
