    Come on guy FESS UP so I know not to buy a watch from you in the future. Maybe the seller and HIS FRIENDS have submitted their vote :evil:

    No way would I continue to wear it. Although sold my car last week and had to drive it for a week until my new one turned up. Slightly different though.

    Well, I voted [I wouldn't wear it] but haven't posted until now. Why would I? Isn't voting answer enough for the OP? :roll:

    To the OP - have you posted Villain details in all the well-known watch forums? If not, why not?

    Yup. Everything else definitely isn't right.

    I will not wear after I decided to sell it.
    One uncareful moment can cost you money.

    I posted it on the forum I bought it from yes. I will not have inter forum arguments so will not be putting the seller on any other site.

    Re: If you sell a watch

    Before I sell anything, I thoroughly clean it and repolish/rebrush the case & bracelet to present the watch at its best. I return all bracelet links, photograph the watch, then write a description. Once it's up for sale it doesn`t get worn.

    Re: If you sell a watch

    Once I decided to sell I would put away in its box that way you break any attachment you may have to the watch and mentally let go of it,especially once youve taken a deposit. To lend it out to you friends is very poor and they should decline the loan of the watch if they are aware if youve sold it.

    +1 I'm the same. I want to keep them just in the condition they are ready for the new owner.

    Re: If you sell a watch

    I only flip a watch 'cause it doesn't get worn, so it's already in it's box & clean .. but even if that were not the case, once it's sold it's no longer mine so I'd not wear it ..
    /vince ..

    Re: If you sell a watch

    Definately wouldn't wear it, just in case knowing my luck.

    Might run it just to check it still kept time ok to avoid any potential arguments later.

    Cheers

    Cripes, I was scared until I saw the results.

    You have some of the monies, it's not completely yours anymore. That's how I see it.

    It will stay in a special sponge protected flight case, then have a thorough polish before despatch :)
