Couldn’t agree more. A clean gloss dial is something to behold.

vintage is truly a minefield, do not buy if you do not trust the seller to be an honest dealer

If you prefer matte I would suggest buying later a matte dial. The gilt premium should go with the gloss of the dial imho.

x100. And perfect gilt dials are very hard to find. You need to see them in person to check in all light angles. There is nothing like a clean gilt dial. Nothing. They're stunning. But personally, I would never buy one based just on a couple of photos.
