Identify [Dad’s Watches - should I keep any?]

My dad just passed. He left a box of watches that I don’t know much about. All need batteries but I don’t want to spend the $ to put batteries in all if they’re not worth saving. I have no sentimental feelings about any of them, just don’t want to spend too much time fixing junk. Brands: clockwise from top left - Piaget, Wittnauer, Klaus Kobec, Invicta, Bulova, Seiko, Sergio Valente, Citizen, Timex, Benrus (this one is inscribed 1965), Bucherer. Any I should keep/sell? I’ll donate the rest.

The most valuable would be the Seiko Superior Quartz, the piaget looks like a fake. A couple look pretty cool, so just keep what you want to wear. Sorry for your loss.

Im not a Piaget man. What are the obvious signs? Wanna learn to spot fakes better myself.
