I inherited these two - they belonged to my grandfather and grandmother. The mans is in a silver case hallmarked 1918 and the ladies is in a gold Dennison case hallmarked 1917. The movements are identical, apart from size. If anyone can tell me any more about them I would be very grateful. Thanks! Best regards - David
