Grandma's watch died when she did...

Jackie's grandma (affectionately "nanny" in Wales) wore this watch for years but when she passed away, the watch stopped running. It's a 1920's wristlet watch, trench style but more refined. Trench watches became popular with soldiers in WWI and as was common for trench watches, this one does not have a name on the dial. The movement is also unmarked but it seems to be a FHF 1144.
