      Wow, I am impressed. That was quick. Thank you so much. By any chance do you know the approximate manufacturing date? I assume it was sometimes in the 1920's. And where I can obtain an approximate value? Again I am very grateful for your information and response.

      It looks like a 1920-1930's watch.
      It is in a very good condition as far as I can see.
      Nice clean movement.
      I know nothing about prizes in the US. I live in the Netherlands and prizes of old watches here are not the same as prizes in the US.
