good collection, as for me, i enjoy collecting all the rolex "green dial"; 116610lv, 116718ln, 116508, 124300, 228238, 126334 and recently added the Omega speedmaster moonshine gold green dial.

@ALLinHerMovements 10 ай бұрын

Nice! I like green too. You should consider the Milgauss GV with the black dial because the green crystal really pops against the black. Feels like a green dial in a way.

Modern watches have no character, you see one you've seen them all. Vintage has character and all tell a different story.

Got to ask you. If you had one more watch to buy and it was a 36mm yellow gold president. Would you take a white dial with Roman numerals or a mother of pearl with Roman numerals? I just got to know what you would do

1 more con for modern collecting - way less certain which models are going to stand the test of time, whereas with vintage, ya know upfront whether something is already a classic and will stay that way…modern collecting can be much more speculative in that sense, which may negatively impact value long term vs. vintage

@rickriccardi9643 10 ай бұрын

I had a Rolex Pepsi 1966 with box/papers and I had a HUGE problem trying to sell it at a lose. From personal experience, I would stay far from the vintage market knowing what I know now!

@steve337 8 ай бұрын

??? If that watch was all original with box and papers, it’s worth $25K-30K usd. You make or loose money when you buy.

There's a high risk of getting frankenwatches when going vintage, maintenance could be an issue too given it's age and condition.

It’s the same with modern Rolex. You can never tell anymore

@@jethrojacinto2798 No, the risk with modern pieces is getting entire fake pieces that are near impossible to tell apart from the real ones.

Modern watches are mostly big and ugly. If you are interested in well-designed, interesting watches sized at 36mm or under you are pretty much restricted to vintage.
