Watch"patina" question
I have purchased several vintage Hamilton wrist watches. Some have a very nice patina on the dial from age. I've included a pic of a 1941 "Vincent" that I recently purchased that has a nice patina on the dial. To my mind, it adds to the beauty of the watch. But I'm wondering if the watch would be more valuable if the dial is restored to it's original condition and the patina is removed. Any thoughts?Mark

To my surprise, I received a call and a text within the hour on a Sunday. Thanh was extremely apologetic and immediately offered three options to resolve the issue. Full refund, exchange for another 5167 or he will send it back to PP on my behalf. I was amazed by the level of service.Sure, just like any mechanical timepieces, it will eventually have issues. I didn't expect Thanh to step up and take ownership in resolving the warranty issue for me. This reinforced my decision to purchase with TRF dealers, especially with Thanh! Although I have a good working relationship with my local AD, I'm uncertain if they would have offered me a full
