    I've leaped before I have looked on here many times, it's always worked out very well for me.

    On eBay, no I wouldn't do that. There's a reason we have the forum restrictions before SC is available.

    +1 - buying the seller is what it's all about in the end and in general sellers are pretty damn reliable in SC.

    On to watch regrets - none for me. 2014 ended with pretty damn well :)

    But a bit of a collection rationalisation is required for 2015....

    Regrets, I had a few... ♪♫

    Selling my Rolex GMT and Glashütte Panomatic, but both went to close friends so I have first dibs if they ever decide to sell. Maybe also that I sold my Breguet XXI.

    All other regrets were dealt with by swiftly selling the watch in question again.

    And then there was this great offer to buy a BNIB Lange Zeitwerk at a great discount, which I turned down after much consideration because I had just bought the Datograph. Sometimes I wonder if I should have bought it anyway.

    The answer to that is a resounding 'yes'...

    I think that was my old watch.

    No regrets, I take my time buying and selling. I have a watch that I have negotiated a deal selling today. I thought about it first in October and said if in the NY I still wanted to sell I would.

    No selling regrets, but I did regret buying a 16600 SD. It had been my grail for a while, but just didn't wear well enough. I don't regret trading it, as it got me my stunning JLC Deep Sea Memovox :)
