I personally love oxidation, rust and aging on Vintage pieces, makes them unique and have character, sometimes I am amazed that collectors look for perfect pristine pieces, time capsules as you will, never got it, if I want a perfect piece I'll buy a modern one, so don't worry about the paint, it will only make it more interesting and beautiful.
You know I really enjoy reading your posts and especially about the finishing and complexity of pieces however I am very curious on the chronometry of your high end pieces, does a double tourbillon at 30 Degrees make the watch accurate? or at this point accuracy is a moot point and we should only focus on the aesthetics and mastery of the finish and execution?
Regarding the LV World Time, it also caught my eye, a very cool dial design and a fun watch really executed in a way that brings a fresh perspective to the complication for which I really like it but the unfortunate thing is how LV has priced it out of reach for most collectors which is a shame. I can't justify it.
