I have three watches need IDing and value. One has no band and is in working condition. One has a band that is fully attached, and I don't know if it works, and one has a band that is not fully attached and I don't know if it works.
Here they are, respectively
1. LeCoultre, small square, no band, works. Appear to be gold.
2. Gruen, cicular, very expandable metal band. Appears to be gold.
3. Benrus, circular, very expandable metal band, half attached. Appears to be gold.
My grandfather and the man I'm named after was a watch repairman. So I probably wouldn't sell these watches if they weren't worth a lot.
 
When you say small are they very small, like ladies size? If so then they aren't worth very much.

The LeCoultre is what they used to call the imported Jeager LeCoultre watches, very nice Swiss manufacture.

The others should say on the back if they are actually gold.

The LeCoultre is an upper scale watch. The Benrus and Gruen were working mans watches in the day.Not super high quality in their day, but nonetheless have a collector market today.Usually sold under the $300.00 range,however a Gruen day night could fetch upwards of over $1000.00.http://www.watchestobuy.com/GruenDayNight.htm
