Yeah, Gene, I think it's size too suggest it could work as something like a decorative pocket watch loop... I know there are different types of attachments, but the picture I posted has a hook very similar to the your Silver Burmese piece.

I know in neighboring Thailand, the Thai people really do value clocks & watches...it can make a nice gift...it is very common to see shops in Thailand which solely clocks and watches...not something we see too much here at least in the USA...usually if a place sells nicer clocks it's a nice furniture store...or a jewelry store will sell watches and maybe some nice clocks....otherwise massive chain stores have taken over and most people go to Walmart, etc or chain jewelry stores in the mall...or now internet.

Irregardless, you have to admire the repousse similar to see in those beautiful dha, such as Mark's:
