I did some math: A watch that was potentially 148 years old, made in the watchmaking
link heartland of Switzerland, that still works, was sitting in a
link shop not five miles away. And it was selling for a relative handful of beans. (To be clear, this is an amount of beans I personally might invest in like, a car, not something that could potentially get lost
link between couch cushions, but we’re talking about rare watches here. I think you get it.)
