Over the past ten years, we have bought and sold more Omega Moonwatches than any other Australian dealer. Hundreds and hundreds, including many rare and limited edition pieces. Not because we are a large dealer, but because we have recognised the value and investment potential of a watch with history like no other. And without any doubt, in years to come, the Moonwatch will continue to intrigue and excite a new generation of watch enthusiasts.
In year 2000, the internet was barely a thing, and watch dealing was still conducted the old fashioned way: by placing large 'canvasing' ads for wrist and pocket watches, scrap gold, war medals, and pens.
Fredman, or Fred The Man, was by far the most successful operator. He was an aggressive advertiser, a businessman of sharp judgement, slow to compliment, yet generally perceived by both colleagues and customers as fair to deal with. |
