Polished Vs Unpolished

[patrickchristianchang]

Hi All,

I would like to ask your opinion about whether you would prefer your vintage watch to be polished or left unpolished(in original condition).

Some collectors I know insist that a vintage watch with natural aged look and some wear is a better collector's item than a polished one.

Tell me your views..

Cheers!

very much depends on the owner. for me if i ever own a vintage, i'll leave unpolished. let the passage of time that the watch has gone thru stays.

I will do a one time polish and servicing when I got the vintage piece and that's all....subsequent it will be just servicing .

For me if I am to wear it everydays I will go for polished, for collection left unpolished.

Cheerio,
