Evening all! In addition to the Swedish military Lemania watches that I was recently given, I got two pocket watches. One is a Leonidas, running and keeping time, that is marked on the case GS/TP with a broad arrow and 086876 with Bravingtons engraved below. I gather that the Bravingtons identification is because these watches were sold off by them post-war but can anyone tell me anything about Leonidas movements and who might have used these pocket watches? The other watch is key wound in a very worn silver plated brass case. There are no makers names anywhere on the watch, only the letters G R K under the balance. The train is intact as, when I give a little wind, the balance wheel spins freely but it won't run. Sorry about the poor quality pics but hopefully they'll be enough for identification purposes.
