"SERKISOF railway" Explanation: "Serkisof" is an important brand pocketwatch. Having this brand pocketwatch for old people like my grand father is really something in Turkey. By the way if you have not seen one,this pocketwatch has a train relief on its lid. |

Serkisof Explanation: That is a brand name DEmiryolu means Railway and in fact I saw some "TCDD" as well. TCDD means (if there is ) Republic of Turkey State Railways I am not exactly sure but I think It is an old trade mark inherited from Ottoman Empire times, perhaps TCDD producing this wath under this right. |
