That lathe bench looks like it will be very well made!
The watchmakers bench looks great too, certainly better than mine. I also have some bench space set up at 4 feet high, this way I can stand at it, sit with my chair low so the work is at eye level and also sit with the chair up so I am at a normal desk level. It gives you more working positions which, if like me, you have a bad back is priceless. Good luck with these and look forward to seeing them in your workshop
