Welllllll, it might be a great blog, "telling me everything I need to know".... IF I could read ITALIAN!!!
Seriously, did I get to the wrong page? I'm pretty concerned about paying $10K++ for something and finding out that its a gorgeous Rail dial - that was repainted...
Thanks, all!

Stefano's blog is in English too. It's translated below the Italian in each section.
The 1655 on the Bob's Watches site looks to be an OK example, but just OK. That case is over-polished, IMHO, and more minor, the date wheel has been replaced. The price reflects the condition. Good luck in your hunt.
