I have seen an increase in the number of businesses advertising on the WTF website. Should we as members feel secure and confident that these businesses are honest and legitimate because they are allowed to advertise here?

Question on Tudor dial, no Swiss Made on the dial?
I have a beautiful Tudor 7809 that was just serviced. As part of the cleaning the tech asked me if I wanted the dial refinished and I told him it didn't need it. He agreed it was nice but lacking the "Swiss Made" or "Swiss" on the dial. He wanted to add that and I said no since I didn't want to change it from stock. I talked to the original owner's nephew (the original owner who had it since new in 1953) and I was told there was only one servicing in the late 60's and his uncle was emphatic no changes were made. I am wondering if they put a service dial on then as part of the overhaul. I am in a quandry because I have seen a few watches with Swiss made missing but it seems rare or a repaint. Since the markers on this are raised and even the tiny second hash marks are crisp and perfect. There is also no writing style on the face. it looks like it was done by the factory. Anyway I would like your thoughts.05.jpg01.jpg

If you could chose one Patek?
If you could chose one Patek in your collection what would it be? Something to wear everyday and an icon to the brand. I might say 5146 or 5227

I need your help refining my watch collection!
Hi everyone,Now that we¡¯re entering 2018 i started reflecting on all my purchases in 2017.It was a crazy year as I ended up buying everything I could get my hands on.But I started feeling that it¡¯s all about the quality and not the quantity, therefore I¡¯ve decided to get rid of a couple and only keep the ones that would add something to the collection. In addition I¡¯m looking to add my first Patek ( Nautilus 5712) as well as an AP RO jumbo 39 sometime around Jan / Feb 2018 so the extra cash would help.My current collection:AP RO 15400st 41 white >Rolex SKY-DWELLER 326934 BLUERolex Deepsea DBLUE>Rolex 116500 LN Daytona whiteRolex SD43 50th anniversary >Rolex Sub 116600LV ¡°hulk¡±>Rolex GMT Master II BLNR ¡°Batman¡±>Rolex SD4000 116600 discontinued.Rolex No date Sub 114060Omega Seamaster PO GMT>Omega Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday Omega Seamaster cosmic 1967>Seiko SKX009JThe watches marked with > are the ones im keen on keeping.
