Great report
Jul 20, 2014,10:06 AM
I was there myself earlier in the year & same as you Michael I was blown away with the work of Sebastian in the restoration department . It really does make you realise what you are buying into when you purchase AP. Loved the old register books of all the pieces sold. Thanks for refreshing my memories Michael great report.

I must admit, this visit really opened my eyes to vintage AP watches. The last few years have found me dreaming on a complicated AP too. Hopefully I can have one of each in the long term...
Thanks for sharing MichaelC.
