    It's a disease I tell you

    Anyone else do this. Decide to sell a watch, go grab all boxes etc from storage. Take some pictures, decide it looks too good and you want to keep it, then repack everything away

    Repeat the following week....

    My latest attempt at not selling

    It certainly is but from experience I can tell you, while it may have escaped the axe for now you will have the itch to sell it
    again before not too long.

    Seems to me to be perfectly normal behaviour. I concur that you'll likely sell it one day.

    ^this, once they've shown weakness and separated themselves from the pack it's usually only a matter of time.

    I have 5 boxes like this in a drawer - aided-and-abetted by You Wretches not buying them when I did make a token effort to sell...

    So it's basically your fault.

    All of you.

    You should be ashamed of yourselves...

    If you are doing it... it's normal. It comes from when we were in the caves and hoarding stuff. If I were you, I'd sell that. Do you think you would find anyone to want it though?

    It's a lovely thing, I'm sure someone would want it, maybe not on Rolex loving TZ, but someone would

    Nope, never have. What I have done is sell a watch and then regret it. Corum aren't the easiest to sell - depends on the discount of course.

    I like it too, but then I tend to like quirky and different.

    Actually it is a pretty good looking watch.

    I think I've regretted selling most of the watches I've ever sold. Some of them keep me up at night!

    I’m the opposite; I struggle to sell watches because I become attached to them.

    Once sold though, I rarely give it a second thought!
