B.J.Hajen

[jrmartin]

Good evenings.
I have this pocket watch (33 mm) for some time and I would like to identify his origin and age. In the box of it can read: "B.J.Hajen" and "Jever" ess, which me sounds to German.
Thank you very much

Looks like a mid-19th century Swiss bar movement watch. Is there any writing on the dust cover? Could you post a photo, also one of the writing on the box. Thanks.

Hi jrmartin,

"JEVER" is a town with 14.000 citizen in the north of Germany - Friesland

The word in the middle looks to me as "Uhrmacher" (english for watchmaker).

As Ron mentioned, a swiss bar, mid-19th century movement.
My best regards
Tony
