Three-Day Vintage Watch Course Answers the Question: Luxury or Lie?

We have so many watch aficionados asking us all the time about what they need to know when it comes to buying vintage watches. Now, the National Association of Watch & Clock Collectors (NAWCC) has put together a three-day course entitled "Luxury or Lie? How to Identify a Genuine Watch."



Now, you know that if you buy a new watch from an authorized retailer you are safe. But when it comes to buying vintage watches from a source you don't know you need to be careful. The course — being offered in Santa Paula, Calif., November 12-14 — reviews watch terminology, complications, movements and more. Additionally, it teaches which components are the most important to study when buying a vintage watch, including dials, hands, strap and even the case.

The course instructors are also bringing in both genuine and fake watches for participants to examine close up. Among brands covered throughout the two day event are Omega, Rolex, Rolex-Tudor, Breitling, Cartier, Tag Heuer, Panerai, Bell & Ross, Montblanc, Girard-Perregaux, Audermars Piquet and others.

There is a fee for the class and interested parties should visit NAWCC.org. Of course, you can typically trust vintage watches sold by authorized retailers as well as the major auction houses.
