Hello,
I've been registered on this site for the best part of 4.7 years but haven't posted much at all.
My question to Philipp is this: Some of us collectors prefer to purchase vintage watches that have been professionally restored (not by the manufacturer, but by a suitably qualified watch smith).
From a personal perspective, I don't like wearing watches that look like they've been in a nuclear war, but understand that connoisseurs prefer that vintage watches look their stated age.
It's an age-old conundrum, but I'd rather stick with my refurbed preference at this juncture in my life.
Happy for comments to be raised, contra or pro.
Russ.
