    Fantastic ! Thanks to @Robert-Jan for this great in-depth article ! I'm also convinced an Extract of Archives adds value to the watch ; but it seems people can order one for a watch they intend to buy to ascertain if it's legit, and I wonder how they can and if they are entitled to do it as they are not the owner of the watch ; when I ordered one for my Moonwatch late last year, Omega was pretty demanding asking so many additional pics from the watch, and the whole process and communication took quite some time until I got it finally.
