The vintage watch world is a strange and mysterious place at times. To the uninitiated, you’d be forgiven for thinking a lot of money is exchanged for a second-hand good when a factory-fresh example is available for a similar price. While in a literal sense that is correct, much like the finest classic cars, the ‘true’ value of a vintage watch only develops over time; its historical significance, scarcity, and condition only revealing itself decades into its life.
Every timepiece tells its own story: should it find its way into your possession, you are merely the custodian of its latest chapter. Time is infinite, after all, humans are not.
The man who found the Titanic is on a new quest
In a career that’s spanned more than 60 years, Robert Ballard has conducted over 150 underwater expeditions and made countless significant scientific discoveries.
But the renowned oceanographer says he’s made peace with the fact that he will probably always be known as “the man who found Titanic.”
According to Ballard, his mother predicted he’d never be able to escape that “rusty old boat” when he called to tell her he’d located the famous shipwreck in 1985.
In his upcoming memoir, “Into The Deep,” Ballard recalls walking into the premiere of the 1997 movie “Titanic” with the film’s director James Cameron, who turned to him and said: “You go first. You found it.”
