    Help, please!!

    I purchased a pocket watch from a local "junk shop" because I liked the design and the movement appears to be in good condition. I am going to have it serviced by a watchmaker, but I was hoping someone may know something about the maker and the movement.

    The face of the watch says "Walton" at twelve-o'clock and "Swiss" in the six-o'clock position. The movement only says "17 Jewels" and has not visible serial number. The case was made by "S.W.C. Co. Scepter." I have attached a few photos. If you can offer any help, I would appreciate it! Thanks

    Looks like a typical 1930s style Swiss movement to me. The maker is not familiar. Perhaps the experts in Vintage will know more.
