My best 'find' was a LeCoultre memodate in a shop that sells used clothes..IIRC it cost me all of MYR120 (or USD40 at the time).

 

This was one of the watches cased for the US, hence the 'Jaeger' was not used.

My vintage Rolex cost me -£30.  I bought two knackered Tudors with bits of bracelets and an old Rolex not working with a broken bracelet for £230.  

I serviced the Rolex, re-finished the case and re-built the genuine bracelet from some of the broken parts.   The rest of the bits I sold the rest on eBay for £260.
