    Hey everyone,

    This pocket watch was given to me by my uncle as a college graduation gift, and it was given to him by my great grandfather when he graduated from college! I am trying to find out any information about it, so if you have some, please let me know!

    It is a Waltham watch. On the mechanical parts it says:
    A.W.W. Co.
    WALTHAM U.S.A.
    17 Jewels

    There is a number there which is 24049932.

    On the silver back cover it has a five pointed star and says:
    S.W.C. Co.
    14 Kt.
    Gold Filled
    25 Years
    5547779

    There is also a smaller diagonal number on the cover that reads A17336P.

    Please let me know if anyone has any information! Thanks so much.
