I got pretty decent feedback saying it looked fine, convinced myself it was, pulled the trigger, and knew within 15 minutes of opening the box that it was too big. I had it listed for sale a few hours after that.

Fortunately, I only lost a few hundred selling the watch, but I still wasted a ton of time and energy during the semi-stressful sales process. Also, I knew it was too big for me to begin with, but just wouldn't admit it to myself, which made it even more frustrating.

Save yourself the frustration and stress and just let the idea go now, trust me.


How can you not like people here at the TRF? Thanks so much for the sound advice.

Have you considered the CE or the FC Diver? There were a couple for sale at Champagne Court when I was there a couple of weeks back.


Yeah I’ve seen those as well. Just the idea of forming so much for a discontinued ceramic diver made me think might as well go the extra mile and get the ceramic offshore chrono. 🤣
