If that's how those parts were stored I'm not sure of their value...

The old part diagrams used photos of the parts, so I guess you need to search the web a few hours!

This is only 10% all the watch bodys are good and 75% are in rolex containers, I'm sending most to a pro I work with. That's all I can do with the Bulova, Hamilton and the zillions of Jewels that are in in the collection. I'll be keeping all the watch bodies, crystals, crowns, bracelets, I might get a couple of something out of it, I'll be dumping the 3135 stuff, Were searching the collection for the rest of the 1520 parts now.

The 3 rd box has almost ever watch book on the planet. Buying an estate sale, made me realise 1 thing, When you get close to 100, you better wear clean underwear at all times, you never know who will pull 'em off in the end and we all get to see if your wearing boxers or brief's. (House in order).
