Now that I've fortunately gained knowledge of my first pocket fob watch that I had posted earlier on this forum, from a wonderful person; these two images are of my second fob watch. I'd like to know who it was made by, when it made, and of course where it came from! :) Thank you.
Gladly appreciate any helpful feedback.

Hmm, from the marks it was imported silver, marked with the London import marks for.....ummmm.... I may be corrected but I would say 1907. Is the importer's mark AGK or AGH? Or AGR? (There is a A G Rogers recorded in the Chester makers marks for 1836 to 1883, but in that case the mark is in one circle, not three overlapping circles).

I think I got my assumption of the London hallmark correct, but I was completely confused with the others, besides with what the Bear stood for.Waylander wrote:Hmm, from the marks it was imported silver, marked with the London import marks for.....ummmm....

I think it does say AGR, but it probably might not be that AG Rogers, since it's in 3 circles.
Thank you very much, now two of my watches, I can generally say where it was from, rather than "um.. I dont know. I think it's a Swiss watch."
