Vintage to me

When they stop fixing them at the factory

When people say “they don’t make them like that anymore”

When they come back into favor after having had a decline

No single standard or criteria adequately defines vintage, in my opinion.

Yours is great. 1990 isn’t that far back that it defines vintage (to me)

Today’s choice, “Neo vintage” explorer two, I purchased in 1990. Still in pretty good shape

So my question is, when do you consider a watch “vintage”, thanks for looking, best regards, Tony ...  

30+ years old

And this reference is no longer offered the same as yours, correct? Vintage enough for me. I like these bezels. Much purer than newer styles.

Good looking Explorer...

It becomes a modern classic as soon as you look at it and ask that question.

I must confess that...

I've been afraid that today's picture wouldn't arrive! It seems one of those so-called NOS! A great one anyway!

A great idea.

For me, any watch more than 40 years is considered vintage.

25 years and up is my gauge for a watch to be considered vintage. 😊
