Diver Dave 0 Posted March 30, 2017 (edited) What do you mean by "Vintage"? Willsdorf & Davis WW-I era? Pre WW-II? WW-II? Immediate post WW-II, "Classic era" 1960's-1970's, or ?? Best values right now are 1930's thru early 50's stuff. Dave . Edited March 30, 2017 by Diver Dave Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve36 69 Posted March 30, 2017 I think mike aka metalmickey recently bought a beautiful vintage rollie- maybe ask him to see if he can recommend same seller/dealer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Diver Dave 0 Posted March 30, 2017 (edited) http://www.ukwatches...troduction.html The guy that wrote the book on them (and who has been a very gracious correspondent for questions over the years). Get out your wallet. I'd just take a walkabout in London and visit the variety of small shops there. Walk & Talk and meet 7 greet. Handle 100 of them. You'll figure out what's overpriced, underpriced, and desirable. There's no substitute for feeling things and talking to dealers.
