$100 for a vintage Blancpain

Came across this gem on IG from Antiques Roadshow. A lady bought a Blancpain from the 60s while thrift shopping for about $100. The expert valued it between $25K to $35K. I’d be very ecstatic hearing that, but this lady just calmly goes, “Hmm. That’s very nice.” 😆

What a lucky find. She seems like a nice lady, so great for her.

Immediately after the cameras stopped recording the same expert offered her $300.00 for it.

I'd believe that if the expert was Rick from Pawn Stars.

I remember when NATO straps weren't so ubiquitous. 

Also, she'd have outbid me at the thrift store.
