I asked the lady today: no movements included. (What do you pay for a 7750? 700€?)
I've been thinking about working (me as an investor) with my watchmaker, but I can't store and he can't sell without a guarantee.
on top: The market is actually quiet....
Also: GUINAND has cool watches

Any idea what era / models the parts are from?

Well two of the drawers are marked model 20/21, does that help?

I’d do it, but wrong continent and I think the biggest issue will be IP issues with whoever holds the Guinand name.
Maybe you could wash the dials and have them reprinted?
Or put some tape over the name?

Hi, I'm new to the forum. In fact, this is my first post so if I'm not getting the posting etiquette right, please tell me. I'm curious what people on this thread think of these watches and what price, if any, you would pay for them? Thanks in advance, Jeff

If the Elgin is running well then it would be OK for €100 or less. The rest of them are junk.

Welcome aboard, Jeff.

This thread is for recommendations to buy, you need to start your own threads for advice. One for each watch might be a good idea.

I would suggest you post pictures not links for posterity and you might want to say what your research tells you and what you think - then the wise ones will chime in.

Welcome to OF, and what will hopefully be a long and enjoyable hobby/pass-time/compulsion/obsession. If you're looking to take the first step in building your collection, follow this thread and see what comes up. The Private Watch Sales forum is also a terrific place to get excellent pieces from trusted sellers at very fair prices. You can also post a thread here about what to look for in a "first purchase," if that's what you're after.

Think it's about time to wake up this thread. Even though it's been real slim pickin's on eBay these day's... that's for sure!

This should clean up real nice. Make an offer, get a new crystal and throw a fancy strap on it and you've yourself a stunner.
