Lets see your vintage watches

I'm glad to see there is a good belief that just because it's a vintage rep doesn't mean it needs to look (mostly improperly from what i've seen elsewhere) aged
Completely agreed. I got out of vintage a year ago and spent the entire year chasing the very piece I sold for this reason: it wasn't a destroyed vintage. It was beautiful. In any case she's finally coming back to me [emoji4]

Ok, WARNING: noob-gnorant comment coming on! Just curious, not crapping into anyone's parade!
After browsing through the 200 pages of this thread, I wonder why there's no love (or very little) for vintage PAM's. 95% of the vintage watches depicted here are Rollies and its cousins, Tudors. The other 5% is scattered across other brands.
I've never been a Rolex fan (I even once won a two tone blue sub and traded it for a 3 week vacation! Lol), but after looking at this thread, the vintagy looks of some models definitely got my attention and will be on my wishlist.
But to my original statement, why there's not much activity of other brands? Is it "not a thing" amongst other brands? Or is it just that Rolly enthusiasts are more active on the matter?
Well, to contribute to the other 5%, here is my one and only vintagy piece so far, but definitely more to come!

my goodness mee... [MENTION=109813]TheSociety[/MENTION]
In reply to [MENTION=129386]psychoyam[/MENTION] : maybe cos on the real market there are really WAY more old rolex than anything else. Vintage PAMs are usually posted on the PAM wristies thread as far as i can see. No reason why methinks.
[MENTION=114247]SuperLory[/MENTION] bro I can't wait to get it back on my wrist! I was a complete idiot and newb at the time and didn't appreciate this masterpiece haha

At least the story had a happy ending, you got it back and I am quite sure it won't come up for sale anytime soon
