hello. I just registered and this is my first post.
I will post pictures of what was passed down to us, hopefully someone can help us figure out what we have and put a dollar amount on it. Thanks in advance.

 

Thank you so much for responding. When you say a hallmark what does that mean? I really have no knowledge of watches. Thank you for the information

 

A Hallmark would be a stamp indicating the Gold quality or provenance. These are hallmarks : ( not on watches)

 

As the Ross case is made in the USA it may only have a "14K" "18K" mark or similar if solid gold. If it's rolled gold or gold capped it will say 14K Gold Filled.

 

Ok let me check it out.

 

Ok so I found a 14k stamp on the band and a separate 14k stamp on the case. It's hard to see in the pictures. Does this mean it's solid gold?

 

It would appear to be solid 14-karat gold. But I really wish you could provide better pictures of the quality marks, particularly the one on the case.

 

I'll have to take pictures with a real camera for better quality. All the above pictures were taken with my phone. As soon as I get better resolution images I'll post them. Thanks again for all the help!! You guys are awesome very knowledgeable!!!

 

Ok better resolution pictures

 

Although not a popular styled model these days. Still have value due to the gold case. Not sure of the width of the case, but caliber 620 is a small movement, so guessing maybe 33 mm sized watch.

On Ebay. Maybe about $1000-1200. Woman's white gold of similar design sold for $1200. White gold more expensive than yellow and watch would sell as a jewelry fashion accessory for a woman more than as a man's watch

Is your family heirloom for sale or are you asking price for insurance purposes?

 

Thanks for helping me put a value to it. It's not really worth anything so I'll keep it and pass it on when I'm gone. If it had a higher value I might think about selling it. Either way I learned a lot about it, and it's a cool item to talk about when the kids get older.
