Bob,

I used to have a customer in your town who was on the square and was a jeweler. A German fella- Dick Dorer [ I think that was his last name ]. Would you have any information on him, please??

I am not getting your picture either from East Texas..

Robert,

It's a 21 jewel, Model 9 Bunn Special. If I read the serial number correctly, 3918757, it would have been made in 1921. There were a bunch of these made, about 150,000 or so and was one of the most popular rail road watches produced.

I see the regulator spring is missing.

This has a single sunk dial which I thought was unusual. Maybe it's not original. What are your thoughts?
