Does anyone have any more information on this old family heirloom please?
It's been around for years but nothing is know about it.

There are no makers marks I can see, just a serial number 66106, which is stamped on the back covers and movement.
It is 2-1/2" diameter (approx 65mm) and the chain is silver hallmarked.
It's a heck of a weight, so you'd really know you were wearing this.
I gave it a couple of winds and it's ticking away merrily at the moment, so it's robust.
I did find reference to a similar but much fancier watch reputedly owned by Herman Goering.

The movement looks similar but again there was nothing to identify the maker, just that it was Swiss made.
I'm wondering was this aimed at pilots or railway workers?
Thanks for your interest.
