Are these clock related please

The box on the RHS is indeed for watch/clock lathe work (mine has a plate showing "Boley" on the lid).
Can't recognise the item on the bench RHS but from your description "chrome item on left (??)...2 brass wheels etc...." I'm not sure it's clock related.
There's an old hand-held small vice missing its wingnut (replaced by crude nut & bolt).
Next, an Archimedean drill.
Last on left is a hand-held tool for tiny collets.
The wooden box on the left appears to contain hand tools for cutting 'cups' on clock plates where wheel arbours emerge (cups cut for oiling and reducing length of brass for arbour once broached.

They're all pretty much interesting antique items and if your offer to pass them on isn't taken up, such items often appear on Fleabay .

The items in the left hand box are cutters for countersinking pivot holes in clock plates for the oil. The loose items at the front are clock making tools. I don't know what the item on top of the box to the right is.

The item on the box at RHS is a screw head polishing attachment. The thing with wheels in front of the box looks like a graver sharpening fixture.

I would be intersted in them if you decide to part with them.

Not really my thing Phil - but I think it's for sharpening screwdrivers...

Yes I think you are probably right about that Ian.

I always hollow grind my screwdrivers, that way they dont tend to slip out of the screw slot as easily.

Not particularly, but better to put up a classified ad and get more responses...
