Default KR Wilson Meters

Can anyone give me an approximate of the KR Wilson meters in the picture? I think they may be more Model T than Model A, especially the Magneto meter. I have picked them up at various times in the past and may want to sell them. They all seem to be in great shape, except for the cracked glass on the magneto meter.

I wonder in those are made by Weston. You could see what similar Weston meters are selling for on ebay.

Those are pretty cool gauges. If I had the space and money I would build a giant Frankenstein type lab for vintage ________ (fill in the blank).

They say KR Wilson on the face of the meter and on a brass tag on the front of the wood base.

As the avid KRW collector that I am and having seen a number of them over the years I would say the price is anywhere from $35-$85 or so on them. The magneto one is T and the Ammeter is in the '31 Catalog for Model A service tools. I have the Ammeter and it works but don't typically use it as I have other modern meters I use in its place.
