Yeah I get it spics but I work on watches and restore what I can. If you ever pop the back of a well made mechanical watch and work on gears, springs etc it is quite amazing. It really is an art craft. Paul Newman’s Rolex Daytona which is a beautiful watch and about 17,000 bucks recently sold at auction for 17.3 million dollars. I can’t argue with people who don’t like or think watches are stupid but I wish you could stop by as I dismantle each piece, have them all laid out in front of me and reassemble it. You then appreciate the craftsmen ship people put into it.
