Who is fooling who? If it was the real deal, get the facts straight and all the background on the item. Otherwise why bother to fabricate a story? The person that will pay top dollar for this item will know if it is an authentic item.

I am very curious as to why the seller would not have a good clear photo of the inside cover of the watch where the inscription is, I would think that this would make the watch more credible as the real deal, If in fact it was Lizzie Bordens watch, Very interesting.

Of course it is worth a certain amount for being a gold watch. If it was Lizzie's watch then I could only guess at its real value. I might bid on it but I don't know if I have the time.

Whenever a timepiece goes up for sale I always am reminded of that *Borden Mantle Clock* with (possible) actual blood spots on it that had been put up for auction!
You'all remember that one??

Yes, I remember that!!!

It had photos from different angles; whatever happened to it, does anyone know?

I lost track of the thread, was it ever authenticated?

If it was sold, how much did it go for?

As I recall, it smelt a little “fishy”

I don't know what happened to it but I saved the pictures! I also found some very mid-20th century stickers that matched those on the clock.

Anyone know what happened to this clock? I have a soft spot in my heart for it!

The file says November 15, 2003 that the pics were first *saved.* Stefani must have saved them first because my file on this same computer says October 2005.

Hmmm...if this was a mantle clock, & on the mantle, do we believe the blood spurted that far? Or was tossed that far by a hatchet in motion?

I seem to recall they found at least one blood spot on the kitchen door. But the mantle? I dunno.
