The family, as I understand it, do not want them. I just don't want them being given away undervalued without knowing what they are.

There's nothing of massive value here. Maybe a few hundred bucks each, sorry to say. The value is sentimental, if that's a thing for you.

Thank you. If that is the consensus then that's helpful. Hope the photos were of interest to you guys. I'm keen on the round rolex, may buy that for myself and let the others go.

the 9kt 4270 is pretty cool, that'd be the best of the bunch i'd say.

the tonneau shaped watch is pretty cool as well, would look great with a new crystal and band.


the orchid isn't worth much above spot, especially now that gold skyrocketed.

would be interested to see the movement and markings inside the pocket watch.

Jeez, the 9 KT gold one went for 1,800 GBP? I guess somebody really wanted it... I was a little wide of the mark suggesting a few hundred...

That's a lot for a 30mm watch.

There weren’t many gold oyster case models without a rotor produced. Still quite a few collectors of the 30-32mm watches.

Even the gold capped models are bringing decent money now. Although after buying one, I’m quite impressed with the quality of the “plating”
