Little tip I use if I'm not 100% assured on say the case engravings on a 60/70/80/90s watch I'm buying !
The 'Tip' came from John the owner of Vintage specialist Swiss Watch Company. Chiswick London about 20 yrs ago!
I pop into St.James's London RSC with said watch and I ask them for a replacement insert.
They take it off me for 2 hrs, then provide a new insert at circa £150 with an invoice - I ask them not to fit it as i want to do it and they accommodate this - they carefully check the engravings dials etc as part of providing the replacement. If it's 'off' they won't give it to me....and I don't buy watch !
They know what I'm doing (I'm pretty sure), but are happy to take my money. £150-200 for a check/appraisal is cheap in my eyes. I then sell the insert for £75-100 so only £75-100 in real terms !
