Just Registered, First Post Here

I’d been happy with my Omega Seamaster and passed up on a hulk a few years ago, now I’m kicking myself. Shoulda coulda woulda been way ahead on the Rolex. Now I’m playing catch up in the world as it is.

I’ve got a great relationship with my AD and today told them to find me a black date Sub or a green Sub. I can be patient as long as I can have faith that one is coming.

When I came home and told my wife, I asked her which one she liked, she said neither and she wants me to but the Yachtmaster in Everrose.

Is it common to have the pre-buyers gitters?

Welcome to the forums! Yes, pre purchase jitters can happen, especially if you start to go the PM route!

Welcome, and yes pre buying jitters aren’t uncommon. For most people dropping thousands of £$ doesn’t come without a little hesitation

Maybe the proper approach should be- which one am I going to buy FIRST
