<p>[QUOTE="buyingtime777, post: 308205, member: 188"]It is certainly Swiss and not near the quality of an American railroad pocket watch but I have no idea what the Canadian standards were at that time. And yes it does have the appearance of a Swiss "fake". I rather think they were trying to fake a Non Magnetic Watch Company watch, some of which were extremely high quality and are very valuable now. It rather confuses me they labeled it for a Railroad of such short duration though. </p><p><br /></p><p>Please update with your watch repairman's opinion.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
