Picked up these three watches at small estate sale today for $2 each. The wittnauer has “18k trim” stamped on the back. I’m trying to figure out if that’s a super shady way of saying “gold plate” or if the gold components are solid. These only sell for $30 or so online - thus if the bezel and crown are gold, i’d rather scrap them and then take $15 for the movement. Anyone seen this before?

The bezel is probably a very thin ring of no weight. The Accutron is the jewel of the bunch. Hope it works.

I like the accutron too! Have only found one that works out of 20 or so. Even so, they sell good for parts. Idk much about the other two though
