Colibri, 17 stone, locomotive on back of it etc etc etc..everything that you asked...I have had it for years!!! I have no idea what its worth but it has red rubies inside, swiss made...|||Rubies are red by definition, otherwise they are called sapphires. In fact they are not natural gemstones but are artificially made, and have been for over a hundred years. They are virtually valueless, but their hard, durable surfaces are used to prevent wear and tear in mechanical watches. 17 jewels means it is fully jewelled, i.e. all the basic hard wearing parts use artificial jewels.
Colibri is an American luxury goods brand. The timepiece probably dates back to the sixties or seventies when Swiss movements were used in most watches but it is of no particular rarity or value. Regularly serviced it will probably last for years.
