A friend gave me some tools that he inherited from a watchmaker. I can't figure out what some of them are and would appreciate your help in identifying them.

Thanks for the info. It led me to this YouTube video showing how the base is used with the lifter. A lifter was included with the tools I received.

3 A and 3B are screw head slotting files.

5 A is a screw plate.

6 A is really self-explanatory it is for measuring watch crystals

4 A looks like some sort of puller, hand or cannon pinion

1 A Looks incomplete I think it is the main part of a watch main spring winder.

Now that you've identified some of the items, I see things on them that I initially did not catch. The slotting file has very fine teeth on the edges. The center holes on the screw plate are threaded.

1A is a K&D adjustable mainspring winder. Missing the part that hold the spring.  

5A is a screwplate. Either for finding out which screw you need or for making new screws. Or repairing screw threads with?
