This thread raises some serious points ...
... that were tainted by the content of Part 22 and the responses therein. I will therefore leave it open for further discussion if PuristS wish to contribute constructively.
But please focus on the points of 'manufactured' history, the view of the general public and the 'position' of watches as wise investments [is that an oxymoron?]. And the levels of 'trust' we have in authorised dealers and watch boutiques.

i like the way u put it man but forget about all these new money watches. they are bs and even respectable brands dishes out gimmicks for the sake of their declining bottom line. lets raise the level and stick with what REAL gentlemen will appreciate. exp...
Bernard, what has Interpol got to do with watch collecting?
