I'm not sure if I can put this here since it isnt really a wrist watch. Just thought I would give it a try.
Case is gold. Inside of the watch on the back it reads "Liverpool" "John Harrison" "Fast Slow" and "6033". Good condition. About 1 3/4" in diameter.
Thanks!

I'm not an expert on this type of watch. It appears to be a circa 1860 watch, made form one of the very many British watchmakers from that era. I don't have a good handle on value, but assuming it is gold, my guess would be around $500-600.
