Just like all the 5513s and 1680s with yellow patina that degrades over time that you lust for, is considered a defect in rolex eyes... Oh and don't forget the faded bezels and so forth...



Ohhhhhhhh and let's not forget the tropical dials that turn from black to rusty brown selling for 30k and up and people buy like crazy...
I respect your opinion, but I find there to be a huuuge difference between a vintage item showing “patina”, and a defective item cracking. Not to mention, it is wildly unattractive. Like a classic car with a shattered windshield
