ARBAlexWatchesWatch snobs say you'll ruin a vintage mechanical chronograph if you don't spend hundreds on a service every 5 years. I picked up this rare vintage Eska chronograph in South America over 25 years ago. The original bracelet is a wobbly mess, it’s never been opened by a watchmaker since I've owned it, and it’s still ticking strong today. Would you risk running a vintage piece unserviced, or are we just paranoid?

ARBAlexWatchesI bought a rare, sealed Astro Boy Swatch strictly as a museum piece for the collection—it will never touch my wrist. Meanwhile, the Addiesdive "Kermit" Submariner homage continues to take the daily beating. Are you wearing your entire collection, or do you have safe queens you just like to admire?
