Watch 925 Marks - please can you get me started

Post by uoapsdb »

Hi, I cannot begin with the hallmarks on this watch - if you could at least tell me the country then maybe I could get started.

The marks are on the inside of the back of the watch, as well as the marks there are some minute scratched characters, possibly service dates ?

Hi and welcome to the forum

This is a London import mark with the date letter "c" for 1918/19. It does not show where the watch case was made - probably it has the same origin as the movement. 7163 is a number specific to the watch. I agree that the scratch marks are likely to be service dates. Normally we would also expect to see a sponsor's mark; this often indicates the maker, but with an import mark it would be the importer.
