What can I do with watches?

I have a large bag of men's and women's watches. All shapes, sizes and colors. I need to do something with them other than put batteries in them or wind them up. Thanks.

@Sharlote what immediately popped into my mind was how cool would it be to use them in a mosaic, either on a garden globe or pillar for a plant stand or bird bath. Use the flat glass marbles and mix them with the watches. Do let us know what you do with pics. Thanks for posting.

You could attach them to a large frame (don't worry about batteries or winding), and hang the frame around a working wall clock.

They make great jewelry. Remove the face, and insert a photo to turn one into a charm or pendant.

There are lots of steampunk afficianata whou would love to have them to take apart for jewelry. If you have some working men's wind-up watches, I would like to buy them, or the whole lot.

I also was going to mention the steampunk decor or jewelry. Check out pinterest or google it for the how to.

You can donate to a worthy thrift store, People buy and clean up and use.
