How are you feeling about those auction results? Is there a top? Are we there... seems like the climb will never end.

To be honest, there is no peak as long as you have heavy hitters investing and buying them! Just look at the vintage pieces compared to the modern ones....they are just gorgeous! Now I understand why many are coming out with re-editions.

To be completely honest, I started collecting Heuers in 1999....it was only in 2010 that I took the plunge and bought my first watch over $15,000USD. To me, that was a landmark and when I felt like I was seriously collecting. Back then, Monacos, Carreras, Daytonas were still fairly affordable under the $10,000 mark!

Any idea of where is best to get the type of cases that Morgan had in this interview? Preferably online...

Those cases are from Underwood of London. Pretty sweet boxes to store your babies!

Ha! Thank you for the warm words! I wear the right watch as a Uber sexy bracelet but the bright side is that it also still tells time!
