Pocket Watch Case

WWI ANTIQUE POCKET WATCH WITH BULLET HOLE! Unbelievable Rare Half Hunter Case. Once in a lifetime find. A pocket watch that was struck by a bullet. Imagine the history this piece has seen. One can only imagine if this pocket watch saved a life. Likely made in Switzerland in the early part of the 20th Century. The case measures 51.5 millimeters in diameter and is 14 millimeters thick. The movemen t measures 43 millimeters in diameter. Galonne is what the pink gold band around the watch is called, I assume plated. The open window in the half hunter case allows you to see the hands, but not the hour markers. For that reason, the case is numbered I-XII in Roman numerals, around the window, and the very edge is minute marked, in black enamel in the manner of damascene work. Each number is sandwiched between an ornately engraved flourish. The back of the case is exquisite repousse work with a large open cartouche. The 800 silver has darkened with age to look almost gunmetal against the coppery pink galonne and the black enamel. The crown is missing, and the dial is obviously in interesting condition to say the least. The center is yellowed from exposure, it’s cracked in many places, and it looks like it was shot. I have no idea if the movement is damaged from the impact. The watch does not work so it is for parts or restoration. The case is marked Galonne and 800 on the inside of the front cover and the inside of the back cover. It front cover also has a Crescent and Crown hallmark, which is German. Both front and back are also marked with a logo of intertwined letters, FHF or EHF, where the first F is backwards, the long verticals on the Fs makes up the sides of the H, and the cross mark of the H extends outward to make the horizontal cross over the Fs. I saw the same logo for Fabrique d’Horlogerie de Fontainemelon. The inside of the dust cover is only marked 800. There are also very small punch marks on the part of the case that encircles the movement, they look like little birds. Please review the photos for a complete description. Notes: The crown is missing, and the dial is obviously in interesting condition to say the least. For Restoration, Repair, or Parts. Jewelry, Watch / Timepiece. Hunter case pocket watch. Open face pocket watch.
