Has anyone ever heard of an Alvah Pocketwatch?

Question

I have an old pocketwatch my grandfather gave me (he is no longer here to answer these questions) and we've searched for it online everywhere. It seems to be gold and has a gold chain with a small cylinder container with a small lead pencil in it. The watch face is Alvah and it works like new. I am guessing its an antique but I can't find anything online. Anyone know?

Answer 1

Open the back of the pocket watch, there may be information on the inside of the back cover.

Not familiar with the Alvah brand, but I'm no watch expert.

Answer 2

Take it to a jeweler, they have the inside scoop... or maybe Antiques Roadshow!!!  Heck Yea!

Answer 3

I it's an antique watch that's for sure and for the pencil for emergency cases or mission in the missions of the old wars like WW2 this were used to write secret and important information.
