About vintage mechanical watches:A vintage mechanical watch will not perform like a modern quartz (electronic) watch. Also, with age comes fragility and it may no longer be ideal as a daily wearer. It should be treated for what it is, something old, classical and special. Treat it as you would a vintage car - not ideal to use as a “daily driver”. Keep it in the condition at which you bought it and it will hold or, indeed, increase its value. Use it every day and it will go backwards.About Me: I am a born again watchmaker! I finished my apprenticeship in 1973 having completed technical training at the RMIT, Melbourne. In 1977 I went into retail (jewellery and watches). In the mid 90’s I realised that the watches that once were common had become rare and I began to appreciate their beauty both in style and mechanically. That’s when I started collecting classics. When covid hit in 2020, I retired from retail, set up a workshop at home, regained my skills and am now restoring classics with a passion.
