Condition report:

The items are in varied used condition with surface scratches to crystals and cases throughout. Significant plating wear and loss is evident on several gold-tone pieces, particularly the Wilson and Ingersoll examples. One watch is detached from its bracelet and housed in a plastic bag. The lot is sold as untested; quartz watches likely require new batteries, and mechanical movements have not been verified for functionality.
