I have no idea what's it's value is. But, even if it's only ten bucks, I'd love to own it. It's beautiful

Amazing info.....rather disappointed to find out that's a fake. It did look like a classic and very expensive vintage.

Incredible, that is one watch that would fool most even well informed collectors.
Just goes to show, it pays to know who you are dealing with when buying watches, especially when you get up into what is high priced vintage models. |

Yep, absolute fake! But can see how a novice could be taken.
They even engraved ROW on the movement - a nice touch. These guys know what they are doing. John. |
