Yes, Niello or "Tula-silver". Tula because this city was famous for this technology and Niello because of the Fabrique Niel which most likely made this case. It was run by the Huguenin Freres and I would bet the their "Niel HF" mark is stamped into the case. I just bought a pocket watch two weeks ago with almost exactly the same finish...
