Found this..
"Aaron Dennison died on 9 January 1895 aged 82 and his son Franklin took over his role. In 1905 the company was incorporated and became the Dennison Watch Case Company Limited."
"The Dennison Watch Case Company Ltd. failed in February 1967 due to insolvency and the factory in Birmingham was closed."
Great information and there's contact information at the bottom. Might be worth contacting him and asking questions about your watch..
