We should get back to posting pictures of our watches and discuss about the watches and not the worth of the watches. May be we need an Investment sub forum. ��
I agree with your sentiment. I generally avoid these types of discussions, and there are other forums that do not allow talk of this nature that are an oasis of horological conversation. But this topic is intriguing and this is definitely the place for it, hence the title of the thread. That, and we’re 20 pages in.😂
