Hi Geoff, 

Thanks so much for the welcome and your thorough response. I really appreciate your time and expertise. A challenge is always exciting for everyone, haha. 

You are absolutely correct in that the solid gold casing not having the manufacture marking and date code.. I checked and there is no sign except for a "14K" mark and an "8" mark written underneath it. The envgraving on the back case reads: "With Love. To Gloria From Harold. 2-10-46." The "To Gloria From Harold" have these beautiful tree branch-like underlining.. definitely not your average envgraving skills. 

I also had entertained the idea of the '46 referring to the marriage date, but have still given some thought of the possibility of the case being custom. I do have to admit, I find it quite strange that someone would get such an extravagant solid rose gold and diamond casing and go through the trouble of pairing it this way.. 

Geoff, thank you so so much. Should I just sit tight and keep waiting?
