I keep care of my family heirloom vintages and enjoy the 5digits refs ,TBH in the vintage world the prices are just silly more specially with the widespreadof fakes, semi fakes ,molested pieces .I don t have the time to check every single parts of a watch with certain “experts” to get a confirmation that i got what i ve paid for it.
As i wrote prior i can easily enjoy and happy for other s possesions without the will to have it in my collection ,it goes for watches, cars ,houses even for women;-)
