This pocket watch was given to me by my grandfather.
It has a white face(or dial?) that reads "colibri" "quarts" "swiss made" it has a small image of a train just below the name colibri. On the back of the watch is an engraved(I think) picture of an old steam locomotive that is bellowing smoke. This watch was not made with a hinge or cover from what I can see. It doesn't work nor does it wind up, but if I pull the knob I can set the time, so I think it must use a battery. I doubt this watch is made of gold, so I would guess it's bass, but I don't know. Any information would be helpful, I've looked all over the web and found no pictures of this watch.

My grandmother recently passed away, one of the things we found cleaning out her house was a solid engraved gold Fahys pocket watch, it has a pic engraved on the outside and opens from both sides. It also has a seconds dial. We want to find out more about it but there is not another one like it online. I know the serial # & it oddly has the medical symbol (the snake wrapped around the winged pole) engraved above the serial #. She was a nurse,maybe she got it from her work.Even has a farm hidden in the pic on one side which could have been personalized there for our families farm? Can anyone tell me anything about it?
