Hi, I am asking for someone named Peter, so I know nothing about this watch. These are the pictures he sent, so if you know ANYTHING about them, please let me know. Thanks to all, In the e-mail: these were found when scrapping an old ship Sheila | |||

another one with a Pocket Watch I know you can't see much but let me know if you have even a hint at these. Thanks Sheila | ||||

Because these are together I'm posting the PW here too. This is as close as I could get without distorting the immage. The Pocket watch says: ORIOSA POCKET WATCH HAS INSIDE BUM caps again 002120 on one part of the movement and SU 3602 on another I have asked about the wrist watch information and will post it when I get it.

Shelia, Could that be GUM instead of BUM? I have a vague recollection that GUM was a government-run department store in the old USSR. Is all the printing in Roman/Western characters (English, etc) or Cyrllic? If the printing is Cyrllic, then the names may look a bit different when transliterated into Roman characters. | ||||

Sheila, The pocket watch looks exactly like the modern 18J watches that are being marketed mfg by Molnija made in russia. They have a number of styles. This is the one marketed as their "railroad watch". I have one that was given to me as a gift several years ago. It is a decent low grade watch that keeps decent time, but is no RR grade watch. These marketed for about $50 several years ago. Tom | ||||
