Tempted by a Vintage 1945 large date
Hi, Since I tried back a few Vintage 1945 models at the last SIHH I keep thinking of getting one. The variety of models makes it hard to choose a favourite (although a one bridge tourbillon would be ideal) and I'm still thinking. There's one model though ...

Hi Dje, How are you? I sold the one I had which was the stainless steel model with the blue dial. It was a very pretty watch but I needed the money and I found that the watch was way too reflective for my taste. The hands are finished in polished steel wh...
