Does anyone know what this symbol means. The case is gold colored and very heavy. Brass? It has three acorns above a horseshoe with the work Standard inside the horseshoe with a 3 leaf clover in the center of the horseshoe. Thanks, Harry | ||

"Metropolitan Watch Company" Harry, I have seen a lot of "Keystone Watch Company" Dustproof movements in these over the years, gold filled mate. | |||

Thank you Bila. You are correct it has a Keystone Dustproof in it. Gold filled is great and better than brass. Must be a heavy duty case or the Dustproof must weigh a good bit as it is heavy. No brass showing and that is a good thing. Thanks Mate! | |||

Your welcome Harry, they actually are a very nice case and I would say with a Dustproof in it you probably have an original combo. I agree that they are very heavy, the ones I have had over the years have also been as well. Is the movement nickel or gilt finish and is it an adjusted model? | |||

Beautiful watch Buster! Yes the case looks very similar to mine except mine has Stag on one side. Yours is a lot nicer than mine. Mine needs a COA and mine has a well faded Celluloid dial. Thanks for sharing Buster. Harry | |||
