: Vincent Ferniot, a French journalist, said,
: "Omega collectors like me always felt a
: little discredited by other watch brand
: collectors. We knew that the prices of our
: vintage Omega watches were underestimated.
: From now on we might even be envied. I have
: been an Omega fan for years and after the
: weekend in Geneva, I shall now proudly
: consider myself as a real
: Omegamaniac.""

Now many long time Omega collectors like Vinny Ferniot feel that they likely can no longer afford to continue to add pieces to their collections at the new prices such pieces fetch on the open market.
