@@SEwembly Incorrect. He had the internals serviced but opted, quite rightly, to retain the original external parts and the patina which is part of the watches history. The worst thing you can do as regards intrinsic value of a collectable watch is deep clean and polish the exterior. The internals are another matter altogether as the watch needs to be working and accurate to be of any use.

*One of the coolest watches I ever saw was the "Wittnauer Futurama Flyback" wristwatch circa 60s, 70s (maybe even early 80s).* *The company became Longines Wittnauer.* Around 1983, I walked into an office of a boss I never had to work with before. I noticed the watch right away. It was soooo cool ! I asked him about it. His wife gave it to him for their anniversary. He didn't know the cost. He said it was a real conversation starter wherever he went.

Restoring a vintage item, especially furniture and jewelry like this watch bring down the value quite a bit. Guitars are another item that is more valuable in it's original state, even if played over the years, than if it was restored to look like new. On one episode of ARS, a woman had this 18th century dresser that had numerous drawers and was tall. She thought it looked shabby because of the fading of the finish and she hated the hardware so she had it professionally refinished and replaced all the knobs ( tossed out the original ones). She inherited it from a relative. In its current condition it was worth $30k, only because of the rarity of the piece and it was a Chippindale. If she had left it in its original condition and didn't do a thing to it other than dust it off it would have been worth $300k. It was only one of about 5 known in existence.

I bought my Rolex GMT ref. 1675 in March, 1977 in Bridgetown, Barbados for $400.00 U.S. Other than down time for servicing, (usually 6 weeks every 10-12 years), I have worn the watch every day for 47 years. Rolex in Toronto will take your watch, examine it, and send you an estimate for service, which you must sign and return to them before they will commence any work. On every service occasion the estimate has recommended replacing the dial, the hands, the bezel and the crown and tube to bring it up to todays standards. You can decline all the changes except the crown and tube replacement which I have always done. If you try to decline the crown and tube work they will return it to you untouched, since they absolutely insist on ensuring that the watch is waterproof to their standards when it leaves their shop. The dial and hands have long ago lost their luminance but they are original and will remain so. BTW, a typical service invoice for cleaning and oiling the movement now runs in the $1,000 to $ 1,200 range (Can. $).

@Fred J3 Hey Fred , the fact that his was a family heirloom that was passed down to him is fantastic...I have items from my grandfather that I hold very dear.......not because they are highly valued but because they were from him......I'm sure he cherished it very much throughout the years and hopefully still owns it and did not sell it after getting it appraised as many do. My point is there is no reason to buy a watch that costs this much as all a watch does is tell time. You are buying the brand , which in this case, Rolex, is boring just like Omega ...If you want to buy an expensive watch at least buy a Brietling Navitimer 01 at least it's cool to look at......and I'll leave that G Shock to my grandkids cause ya know what ......I bet It will still be working ...unlike that Rolex ....That along with my properties ....plural.....I'm sure he will be real happy just like that kid in Grand Torino 🤣👍have a fantastic day!

He can say he didn't want the dial replaced for whatever reason he makes up but we all know in the back of his mind he knew he had something rare and didn't want to destroy its value. What? He never was told over his life that the Tiffany logo was really different and valuable.

"But since you kept it original, your watch is worth $50,000." "Oh wow. That's crazy..." "If it had no oxidation and it was all original, it would be a $100,000 watch." "Yeah, but still, $50,000, I never imagined." "If it was in the original box, it would be a $125,000 watch..." "Uh..." "If it was in the original box with the original receipt, it would be a $150,000 watch..."

My Uncle gave me my first Rolex in 1976. It was an Oysterdate Precision manufactured in 1958 , which I still keep up to this day. Earlier this year, I gave him a Patek Philippe and an IWC pilots Chrono while still wearing the watch that he gave me. Im just happy to return the favor with interest. :-)

I don’t know anything about it... but I thought that the fact that it said Tiffany on the dial was something special and if it got serviced it wouldn’t have that anymore. That’s a lie... this guy 100% knew what he had and that Tiffany on the dial was important. You don’t wear something everyday for 40+ years without knowing about it.

@@bighands69 He knew enough about It to know being double stamped is uncommon at least. He knew enough about it to know that the value lies in its uniqueness and originality. He knew that if he sent it in Rolex replaces all worn parts including the dial. I repeat, you don’t wear something with you everyday for decades without knowing what it is or doing some research. Even on basic repair information he would have learned enough about it to have a general idea of its value. A person who knows nothing about a watch like that would jump at the chance of getting it repaired and serviced. He knew more than he was letting on, either that or he’s incredibly dense.

Nothing was mentioned whether the watch came with the original box and papers; if so, that would add quite a bit more value! Also not mentioned is this model has the small triangle gmt hand which is very desirable and adds value! He does need to have the second pinion spring tightened down a bit to make the second hand less jumpy due to gravity! This model came with the “butterfly” 1565 calibre movement which beats around 18,000 bph. Awesome!

His uncle spontaneously took the watch off his wrist and gave it to the owner. I don't suppose he had the original box and papers in his back pocket. In those days it was just a watch. Rolex have always been good, but not necessarily the best. The fact that everyone goes nuts for them is a triumph of marketing.

This is a good lesson to us all , if you have vintage watch be very careful not to send to original manufacturer unless they can guarantee a sympathetic overhaul. I have my fathers omega Ck2915-1 from 1959 and over the years it has been serviced by Omega they have virtually changed every part to a more modern part, in result completely ruining the watch and its aesthetic appearance. This guy was clever to keep the watch as original 👍
