Hi, your watch is older than WW2; it is a Great War era "trench watch", with pin for hands setting. Not sure about the brand, could be a Goldsmiths & Silversmiths, a British maker of that period. The trench watches were intended to be water and dustproof, so I wouldn't try to disassemble it, could have a peculiar kind of screwed case and you would risk to damage it.

You are 100% correct, its a trench watch. After looking online at trench watches the style and structure is on par.
