This was my great grandfathers 1845-1931. He was a confederate soldier in the the Civil War. The watch fob is really cool, any help on the date on this one would be great.

Woaah, your great Grandfather's! This one is the oldest, the naturalistic etching of the case is near art nouveau style but more classical. I would say around 1890!

Lets see the movement! Take the back off and post some photos... The serial number will date it...

Hey Trey. If you take a close up of the movement, I could date it for you. I believe the back lid screws off.
