Re: Good Point -- Maybe "Survival" Means "Known to Collector

: I have always imagined that there is a man on a mountain, somewhere
: -- maybe Switzerland and maybe California -- who has thousands
: of these vintage watches, but he keeps them to himself. No
: social media; no discussion forums; no GTGs; etc.

I have imagined the same thing my brother from another mother. Would it be a good thing to find this man or a bad thing? Maybe one of both of us will be climbing the mountain someday and come upon his bones and the watches. What a story that would make. The watches would be interesting but the story...The story would be so much more.
