Any watchmakers?

Or friends of watchmakers?

I mean, old school watchmakers...

Long story short, I bought a mini lathe a few years back from a widow, and it included a bunch of random stuff in boxes. I finally got around to digging into it a bit, and ended up finding some watchmaker tools, some/all of which might be 100-120 years old? These are fittings for an old watchmaker lathe, which they used to hand cut gears, watch faces, crystals, etc.

Anyone know someone who does this, or collects old watchmaker parts? These are old enough that I'm having trouble pricing them, only a few examples exist on the interwebs in my searches.
