Just went to the watch place. They said it is an authentic Frankenstein watch.

Meaning it is real and from that time from. The front and dials and much of the movement is original. When it was fixed/maintained over time they replace parts with newer parts.

They say it was not a pocket watch converted to a trench watch but made in the 1910’s for the purpose of a “trench watch”

They did not know if it was from the trains, from the military etc. but it is definitely from the time period and based on serial # they think the age range is from 1915 to approx 1918
