Headed out after work to a place which has been hit hard by nearly everyone with a metal detector in Edmonton for the last 10 years. A nice strong signal in the upper 80's in pro mode got me an old pocket watch shell. Possibly silver plate, however I can't confirm that. There were no stamps or inscriptions on the watch.
Below is the watch cleaned up.

How many people have told you that?
Nice find and thanks John..Happy Trails ....Z
