Interesting that the Hulk seems to come up often ...

I've often considered adding this reference.

m j b · 15 July 2017, 12:17 AM

Ooops, I answered the poll before I read the instructions. I sold the 14060M and shortly thereafter bought the 114060. The same watch, but different reference number so technically that would not be the same watch.

I've also had an LV but so far I've resisted the urge to buy it back.

123Blueface · 15 July 2017, 12:19 AM

Never.
I am very selective about a watch purchase and always buy them with intent to keep them for life.
So far, have never flipped any.

droptopman · 15 July 2017, 01:53 AM

LOL, five at least...probably more. Off the top of my head: 16613lb x 4, 16570 Polar x 3, 16610 x 3, 16610 lv x 2, 1675 GMT x 2...oh wait, 5513 x 4. So six.

TOlsen · 15 July 2017, 01:59 AM

Voted none; however I regret selling my 3570.50 speedmaster and have been considering getting one back.

Beauregard · 15 July 2017, 02:00 AM

I've bought several watches twice but the TT Sub has come and gone twice that many times.

Ditto. I still have all the watches I have ever bought. I temporarily lost one (for several years) and ended up buying a replacement. So now I have 2 of the same watch. I therefore voted None.

brmeyers · 15 July 2017, 02:42 AM

Thanks for playing everyone, I really thought there would be more multiple purchases here on TRF.
But it is nice to see many here are smart about making decisions to sell or trade.
I am trying to learn this lesson myself...

Interesting if I made the poll two choices
1) None (48 currently)
2) 1 or more (55 currently)

It would have been close...

Etschell · 15 July 2017, 03:29 AM

i will never do it.

904VT · 15 July 2017, 03:42 AM

I usually keep mine and those that I have sold I have not repurchased. I would certainly repurchase the LV like you did if I ever sold. I would also, consider re-purchasing the AL&S 1815 Up/Down. It's so classic looking and power reserve is a useful function. But as of right now, no repurchases for me.

AK797 · 15 July 2017, 03:54 AM

It's funny, while the Hulk seems the one most bought twice, I've never even seen it twice in an AD.

sutats · 15 July 2017, 03:59 AM

Only the 116710BLNR.

bod42zx · 15 July 2017, 04:03 AM

I've had three deep seas and (warning non Rolex content) owned three of the same model Hublot. No sense at all.

koz123 · 15 July 2017, 04:10 AM

312 sold and bought back

KBM · 15 July 2017, 05:58 AM

116600 - On my 3rd
114060 - On my third
Longines LLD - On my second.
