Silver Watch Hallmarks

[jon6398]

I would like some help in identifying the hallmarks. It has been suggested to me that the "GS" may be a makers mark for "George Smith". Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The mark with sort of a horseshoe in it is a London import mark used since 1906. The London date letter "T" looks like 1914 to me.
I believe the GS mark was used by the British importer George Stockwell. He was in business at least as early as 1907.

Thankyou very much. That is exteremely helpful.
I have one very simple question, is the "925" mark sterling silver.

That is easy to answer - yes.
925 is corresponding to sterling.

Many thanks for your help. The watch is currently not working. Knowing about its history will make restoring it more enjoyable.
