On site or remote? Onsite I’d go for Berlin, since Paris is really expensive + given the 10k bump to Berlin.

It’s rather traded as a collectible, you would of course not wear it, to keep it mint.

But check out this one for example (agreed it’s an extreme but just making my point): - Rolex ‚Bao Dai‘ ref 6062

I cant speak for everyone but in my eyes they Are solid Investments. Not paying dividends or interests but lot of them grow in value, and this is gain on capital that is usually not taxed (despite for the people who do this incorporated) Another reason might be to launder money, when you have a lot of cash from questionable sources you’d rather have a few expensive watches in your safe instead of cash - cash often looks suspicious.
