As for ladies watches, If you brought this up 2yrs ago, I would have sent you over a 1lb bag of watches lol. I was liquidating over 500 ladies watches for a watch hoarder friend. Tudor, Tissot, Longines, Omega & various other vintage ladies swiss branded watches. Couldn't get even $20/each for it. I get asked all the time to help someone sell off their grandmothers watch. Unless its solid gold or silver for scrap value, I dont touch it. Women dont buy used vintage watches

Damn let me know if you come across another decent granny watch
I noticed that a lot of the ebay sellers are the same as the ones in Japan, but with a 60% markup. It's good because it gives another batch of buyer feedback
Currently eyeing a nice looking IWC in midnight blue for like $120. After a service and light polish (and on the crystal too) it should look really nice
I just don't know if I want to spend that much on my first attempt. I don't mind trashing one of those granny watches as I learn my way, but I wouldn't want to do it on something I actually want to keep
