Hi all,just got hold of a silver hunter but cant find much info on the maker. I say its German because it has a crown and moon stamp. It also has a winged symbol and "Mercure" then what looks like a grouse or anyway a bird, and "R 800 F". all 3 lids are numbered with same number as movement but there is no other info on the movement.. would like to find a maker and how old it is. will try pics later but the marks are pretty small thanks in advance | |||

Germany is a good guess as they manufactured many items in .800 silver pre-WWII, as witnessed by a set of flatware that I owned several years ago. As for the other markings....well, 1 picture is worth 1000 words. Cheers | |||

Hi Martin, just tried to get a pic but what with flash and reflection the marks dont show at all. to be clear the "mercure" is not the mercurys head export mark, its a symbol and the word Mercure. | ||||
