Limit Swiss Made Open face Pocket Watch

I have been left an Open Face Limit Swiss Made pocket watch
Which I believe is encased in a bronze Dennis's 'MOON' watch case (i believe it to be bronze as I cannot see any hallmarks) The case does have a serial number which appears to be untraceable (709181) and on one of the bezels (1819)
The mechanism is however a Rolex Lever Swiss Made mechanism
This mechanism has no serial number nor any other visible markings as in number of jewels.
I am desperately trying to find out a little bit of history about the watch and value for insurance purposes
The watch is in perfect working order and I believe it to have been made between 1903 - 1920
Can anyone help with my research
Thanks Noggin

Welcome to the forum.

I’d try posting pictures in the vintage forum. Plenty of knowledgeable folks there may be able to assist

Would definitely consider looking into vintage groups and posting a picture
