Start small and go from there

There are so many amazing vintage watches in every price category to be had... from the hundreds to the low thousands and of course, up. Vintage is lovely in that its No box, No papers, No problem! No one (at least that I know) ever expects to see a vintage watch from the 70's or older with B&P.
There is no way I would have personally considered spending an additional $500 extra for the watch below which I spent low $2,300 for, just to have the B&P. Even if I did care, it's not likely the next guy would... no one is looking for this watch to begin with🤣. It's just a whole different ballgame unless you're buying a marquee name (vintage AP, Sub, PP, etc.) where B&P really adds to the overall value.
So, IMO, start small and go from there... vintage as some others have mentioned, isn't for everybody. No new watch can really replicate the charm of vintage, but no vintage watch can be counted on to provide you the carefree wearing experience of modern builds. Good luck!
