Hi guys,

Ever had a watch which you sold and had absolutely no regrets about it?

I did, just once....when I sold my SS DJ last year after using it for a month or so. Found it just too damn small and was happy to get rid of it.

Cheers - JJ

I part exchanged a Bertolucci for my TT sub. I'd tried to get my original Pulcra Maris repaired and they could not do it due to manufacturing changes. Instead they sent me a new watch but it was not as sturdy as the orininal one I'd had and I only kept it for a few days before part exchanging it. It got me my TT sub so there are no regrets there.

Since I have never sold a watch (and it is unlikely I ever will), I have no regrets.

I have sold plenty of watches and I really have never regretted any of them. I always try to get what I am looking for. Anyone of the watches I have gotten rid of I could find again if I really wanted too.

I'm with Ed on this one.

Until the right one comes along Johnny, then will you still be able to say the same thing?

Well, you know that I kinda regret having bought the Rollie ONLY after I discovered the Panerai brand a couple of months later.

But if and when that 'right' deal comes along... then yeah, I would say I would have no regrets.

Yup!!

I haven't sold one yet, but if/when I do, I hope I don't have any regrets.

I'm with Daren on this one. I haven't had any regrets, yet. As long as it's not a vintage piece and it could be purchsed again if need be.
