Prices of 20 or so years ago and restoration costs

Cleaning up my old tax statements and found some sheets of when I kept records of my purchases. The prices paid, restoration fee's etc.

Interesting on the prices paid 20 or so years ago. Prices in Canadian funds and exchange rate on most was about 1.4

Some may be in Canadian if bought locally, but didn't mark as such.

Some I don't even remember buying or why

It was a 13ZN rare oversized waterproof model. Got poor information on it from Sotheby's as to value

3/4 of the paint was missing from the face and movement was filthy. My watchmaker hated working on chronos and the ZN was a bit more complicated than a standard two dialed model

Sold it from 10x what I paid, but if I had it restored and kept it. Could be worth probably about $40k today.

Shouldn't matter as the money really jump started my small business and made far more money on the investment

Here's what It would have look liked in it's natural state. This one from a Sotheby's auction
