value of their vintage pieces, which I agree are exceptionnal, that the market has gone crazy and is totally disconected to the real value leading colectors aproaching the brand more via an investment perspective (ie: paying watches that are on the catalogue like the 5970 or 5712 above premium instead of just waiting for their AD to recieve one or buying the watch and flipping it within a month for a profit) than of true appreciation of the timepieces.

When you go on other discussion forums thats all you see: talks on investment value!!!
