    I inherited a 1901 IWC pocket watch and have the following info:

    14KT IWC stamped on case w/#255521; the movement is unmarked and unbranded w/ #238903.

    It is not in working order and I have been told by a trusted watch repairer that it would take a lot of work and expense to get it working.

    I would appreciate any advice. We would like to sell it as is. Ebay? other venue? I know that this is not a forum for selling and that is not my intent.

    I appreciate any advice.
    Obviously, I am not a collector, but want to do right by this beautiful watch.

    Thanks for any help. Below is a photo.

    Ron
