tiny .875 silver pocket watch!

HannibalNectar · Jun 16, 2016

Any one ever seen a pocket watch this small? I hadn't. I also have never seen .875 silver either. Any info on a date of this thing would be appreciated.
Is it a woman's?
Is this type of silver common?
I had to leave right when I dug this. But ill be going back for the other half. It was in a farm field so it should be close. Maybe a couple feet away from a plow.

I collect old clocks and pocket watches and I own a couple that are that small. They were not necessarily for women.

The one I found about that size I was able to google. Women's. Mine was plated.

Very nice find, Congrats! I have a spoon I bought with some scrap silver,
has Russian hallmarks that's also .875.
dates back to old soviet union, not sure if .875 is a Russian standard or not.
This was the first time Iv'e seen it.
Hope your able to find the rest of it. HH

I did alittle looking online and I guess it was the standard back then. Mine has swiss hallmark and I guess the .875 hallmark was used in 1880 and newer.

Yeah that's a sweet bit there - would be awesome to find the other part, hopefully not elusive! Very cool pin too!

Cool find, congrats! I found a small silver pocket watch 3-4 years ago that was about that size.
