Does anyone have any idea what brand of watch this is? It measures about 37 mm. across the dial.

The movement just superficially resembles a number of others that I have seen. The engraving seems kind of crude. What is it?

Looks like a Swiss Knockoff of the 8s model 1873 Waltham "Princess". Platework is a little different, but the same basic idea.

Thanks David. Do you think it's worth repairing? I haven't had any luck finding a case for it yet, either.
