  1. I've only been seriously collecting for the last three years and have accumulated maybe 70+ watches. Obviously, most sit in the box but still get worn occasionally. but even the earlier reps with crappy movements generally still work. I'm lucky and have a good watchsmith who gets a kick out of my reps and, although I haven't serviced any yet, when they need repair he does it for a reasonable price. I don't think I've spent more than $60 on any one yet. I've only had three crap out and they were easy fixes for him.

    I've got watch winders and each one hits a winder for three/four days every month. Maybe that helps.

    I agree with Gunnar. I can't see throwing them away. I sort of get attached.

    Do I think they have a soul? Hum..............

    Do I need to get a life? Hum............

  2. The Zigmeister, what an amazing job of resurrecting a beautiful watch. You're work is an inspiration.I happen to have an original '66 Bond I picked up a several years ago and appreciate the work you've put into it. I'll keep a look out for an original bracelet for you.

    Wow!
