    Go to watchuseek.com, I believe they are the world's biggest watch forum. I used to spend as much time there as I do on SS now.

    Those guys should be able to help you out.

    That was the first place I found but I can't find a section in the forum about inquiries like this. Would you happen to know a ball park figure for a watch like that?

    Even tho Antique,rarity will set the price at an auction house,being an antique buff just looking at it i would say $80-$100,given time to investigate the piece and providing history may increase it x5 or more.
    Investigate properly before setting a price.

    If you go there and find the sub-section that talks about those watches or close to it and post a new thread with clear pictures, they'll be able to give you a lot of info.

    Watchyouseek.com is great.... I have a very unhealthy addiction to watches.

    It is a bit hard to see the details on the face of your watch so it is too difficult to tell what its worth.

    Checked a few forums out and you aren't allowed to give valuations on these watch forums? I have no idea why, seems pretty stupid that you can't give a price gauge on a watch forum about watches zzzzzzzzzzz

    Also does anyone know any locations in Melbourne where I could bring the watches in and get them evaluated or something?
