In a pocketwatch, the click is a little part that is pressed against the ratchet wheel by a click spring. The click's job is to make sure that the mainspring arbor only turns one way so that the watch can be wound.
The click in this watch is a crudely made replacement part.
The click post has also been replaced, clearly. This is the back side.
This watch is an Elgin grade 2, 16 size, made about 1895.
