925-1000 is a great resource, we refer to it quite frequently for antiques.

My guess Pearce & Thompson - 1900..1914, so again, my best guess, that's a "b" 1901

Just an educated guess but that is the LION PASSANT, other mark is from Birmingham.......and I think the maker is PEARCE & THOMPSON

See the second one from the bottom here, looks like yours:

As someone who used to spend time out on the waters for work, very nice sentiment to a sailor (or their loved one) - lovely piece!

Looks like someone wore it for a long time.Notice the top half of the eyelet how thin & worn down it is.I can't even imagine the story's this piece could tell us. Very nice piece
