I gave this a rare thumbs up. It was reasonably good content.

I can’t remember the exact date but Rolex have already stopped marking spare parts for watches certainly in the 1960s and probably 1970s.
It’s a fallacy you can pass watches down now and they last forever with silicon technology as those parts cannot be hand fabricated by a watchmaker copying a steel and oil movement watch, which did last 100 years.
You have to buy from Patek Philippe; Swatch Group or Rolex as they will ensure a reasonable amount of spare parts are made.
As Ariel Adams said on his Spending Time and Superlative Podcasts:
You need specialist watchmakers and nobody will touch radioactive Radium dials and probably Tritium available to the early 2000s.
Don’t spend too much as none of them now have an indefinite lifespan and have an obsolescence related to the mass use of silicon now which can’t be hand fabricated.

That Ed White looks legit on the surface, but honestly those dirty lume plots and completely missing lume in several places destroys the look of the watch.
The bezel is also not in perfect condition and full of grime.
The stepped dial looks damaged (grey areas several places) especially around the 5-8 o´clock area.
Pay more and get a nicer watch. And remember 70-80 % of the price for a watch is in the dial!

the dangers of drinking vintage moonshine before making a vid

[@scottlalonde2878]

Great video, Arch. Had same conversation with my jeweler recently. Fake aged replacement parts are getting harder to spot. Also did not realize puting vintage in water temp change can crack the dial. I thought as long as it's pressure tested, what's the problem. Not that I own one, but that's interesting, Paul, thank you.

[@bikeman123]

A cracked dial is only going to happen to a mother of pearl or porcelain dial or similar. Most vintage watches have steel dials which are not going to crack.

[@scottlalonde2878]

@@bikeman123 Thought they were brass base. So, does that mean only thing thatz cracked is poor old dear Arch?!

So Arch how are da bintage Pateks goin price wize?

[@fullymechanical9055]

The dangerz of going vintage on the wiphe are even worse....

he loves his vintage pink interior

[@bbrebozo6417]

Vintage is for watch collectors who know what their looking at (not phatso), pootube kudos collectors get fancy watch boxes with red velvet interiors.

[@bikeman123]

£13.5k for a 1966 speedy with that bezel - way over priced. I'd yank your hand off if I was offered similar for my pre-moon 321 (all original) which has a much better bezel and has just been serviced. Omega certs don't guarantee authenticity they just state where the watch was originally sold, who cares, at £120 Omega are taking the piss. On a separate note, now Omega are remanufacturing the 321 its going to get way harder to identify franken watches.
