Watches and more today, are they valuable???

[tford62]

Today I went yardsale-ing with my wife, daughter and mother for probably 3 hours or more. I bought my daughter a bike for .25 cents and a brand new pair of steel toed Herman survivors for myself for only 10 bucks. Bought about 15 movies for my daughter, Disneys included, for about a buck a piece. My wife bought the usual craft stuff and knick knacks to collect dust that drives me crazy, but to each his own I have to keep telling myself, LOL. For pretty much the first time, I tried stepping out of my realm of knowledge, I am a coin collector, and tried buying something I thought might have some resale value on Ebay. I bought a couple of antique ladies watches, one a Bulova Excellency that says 10K gold filled on the reverse with a serial number of 0372865. The other is an Eglin Deluxe that is also marked 10K gold filled. I will post a pic later on if someone thinks I have anything of value, oh, and I paid a buck a piece for them, thanks for any help I can get. T.

P.S. The Elgin is keeping perfect time, but the Bulova is losing it slowly, but both do "work".

P.P.S. Here is a link to almost the same exact Elgin on Ebay, mine doesn't have the black marking on the bottom of the face. Might be a different yr?? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140343348950&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

P.P.P.S. Here is the link to the exact 1951 Bulova on Ebay, the guy is getting over $30 for it, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160359742201
