Antiques Roadshow: Denver, Colo. - Hour One

At "Antiques Roadshow" in Denver, Colorado, this guest brings in a collection of four watches inherited from her husband’s great-aunt. Appraiser Kevin Zavian explains that the watches were made by 20th-century “Jeweler to the Stars” Paul Flato and are valued at $15,000 to $20,000. But what really has Zavian excited is the guest’s old mine cushion cut diamond ring, adding $200,000 to $250,000 to the value of her collection!
