I would like to know more about these watches. The small curious watch is in a leather compartment that opens/closes. The Rolex is in a sleeve pouch. There are also 3 Waltham pocket watches.

the rolex looks like a late 1960's to early 70's model,might be the 16433 model,oyster perpetual day date,the band is the jubilee bracelet,18ct,and the bezel is also 18ct,the rest is stainless steel
The leather cased watch looks to be a Movado Ermento ladies "purse" watch. They're kinda unique in that they are self winding. When you open and close the case it turns the crown thus winding the watch. Also, one of your three Walthams is actually a Hamilton. I'd love to see those three with there backs off so we can get a look at the movements... Nice watches!
yes,toolate2 is right,i too have seen 2 movado examples of theses purse watches,they date from around 1930's,they range in price from around 120 usd to 550 usd,i saw them in the millers collectors guide.the 1 had a shagreen cover,and the other had a croc cover,the latter was 120 usd to 300 usd and the shagreen was 500 usd.
All I can tell you, is that the Rolex looks like a fake. Sorry, others are nice though.
Thx to all - I will attempt to remove the backs of pocket watches to post. I will also research the authenticity of my Rolex. Tomorrow I will post pics of another vintage ladies' Rolex (hopefully) and a ladies' Movado 17 jewels. I hate to spend $125 on an individual appraisal if the watch is worth squat, so I appreciate your input.
