Peter, when hitting us with these requests, we need to know the serial number. This could be anything from a "traveller's" watch to an early higher-end Hampden RR watch made when 18s and 17J were still RR Grades.

You have a 3+ adjusted 1900 vintage Model 3, 17J RR Grade made with along with some "Deuber Watch Co. movements around its SN.

Given that it is marked adjusted, and that the Dual Hour Hand is original to the movement, if the case is a Decent Deuber Case, I would value it at $300-$400.00

I don't think you have a franken-watch, you don't see a lot of dual time zone hands but I have seen them on most every brand. I would think it was not something that came from the factory but added by a jeweler per customer request.
