Help with Masonic Ribbon Pocket Watch Fob

I have this ribbon that was my Dads. He was a Master Mason and was given this by the one who preceded him. I need to know what this ribbon means. Is it a funeral ribbon or a meeting ribbon? I also can't find the mark on the top of the back of the Masonic symbol? If anyone could help me with these questions, I would greatly appreciate it.

 

A quick internet search brings up a lot of grosgrain ribbon fobs, some Masonic and some not. Apparently, they were a very popular style in their time and an alternative to a mesh fob.

Oh wow...thank you. So it may be antique?

 

It would be antique. Wristwatches weren't widely worn until after World War I.

Thank you so much! Do you know anything about the mark by chance?

 

I can't see a mark? Is there one in your close-up photograph?

On the second picture it's up at the top. Looks like a 70 or 7D, something like that.

 

Your eyes are better than mine. A better quality photograph would be helpful.

I'm sorry, this is the best I can do...I shake really bad. 2 pictures

 

I suspect it says 9 ct.

 

Thank you...that's what I was thinking, spent hours trying to figure it out last night since I looked under my jewelers loop and found the stamp says 715.
