Don't learn the hard way...
Take the shortcut to success with this
comprehensive coaching manual!
Now
YOU can benefit from the author's 20-plus years of
experience buying & selling in the vintage and secondary
market watch business. The material presented in this book
is an expanded version of his one-on-one coaching program.
In this 114-page
manual, you'll receive valuable business suggestions and advice, and
read numerous success stories based on the author's personal
experiences. As an example of the wealth of knowledge contained
in this book, the section entitled "Things to Think About" lists 26
'words of wisdom,' including this one:
#6. When buying old
watches from the public, if time and circumstance permits, ask if they
have the original box or boxes. Many older watch boxes have
removable inserts or liners in the bottom half of the box. Be
sure to look under the insert. It is common to find extra links
for
metal bracelets there. I’ve also found original straps with
a logo type buckle from the manufacturer. These boxes also make
a good hiding place for other items. Down through the years I’ve
found paper money, silver and gold coins, military scrip and medals,
along
with a variety of other interesting items, like campaign buttons.

Since I was one of the main "watch
guys" at a large San Diego swap meet, other swap meet sellers of
general merchandise would often contact me concerning watches they had
found. Some called just for information. Others called
because it was often simpler to sell to me than go to the general
public, especially if the watch was not running or was of limited
interest to the public. They knew they could get "quick cash"
from me and not have to wait for their profit.
A gentleman who sold small collectibles called on a
Thursday afternoon and said that he had found a nice chronograph that
he knew I would be interested in. He described it as a manual
wind, double register Gallet chronograph, with a black dial, in a
stainless steel case. He said that the only problem was that it
was engraved on the back. We discussed price, and came
to a tentative agreement. This San Diego swap meet was open
Fridays on a much smaller scale than the following two days, Saturday
and Sunday, so I made arrangements to visit his selling space the
following morning.
The watch was as described, so
I purchased it for about 25% below its book value. The seller
again apologized for the engraving and remarked that the stainless
steel back looked thick enough that he thought that the engraving
could be polished off.
The engraving on the back of the watch indicated
that it had been presented as a first prize to
the winner of a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier landing contest in the
late 1950's.
Who was that Naval Aviator? Wally Shirra, who
went on to become one of our most famous and accomplished Astronauts!
With his name and a verifiable
event engraved on the back of the watch, this Gallet chronograph
moved out of the watch world and into a much more rarefied collectible
market.
If the gentleman who sold me the watch had taken
the time to do a little research, he would have been the one to make
the exponential profit. It's also a very good thing that he
didn't try to polish the engraving off the back to "improve" his
chances of getting a better profit!
