So been contemplating on minimizing/maximizing the Collection

Proposing a trade for few watches for this …

Thinking of trading these pieces …

And maybe one of the SPB’s as well…

Would you do it?

I agree with you though…I kinda combined the pieces that have the same sort of feel And complications and combined them in one watch so I’m my tiny brain says!! Ohh one watch to rule Them all!!

😂

I would be interested if certain pieces are interesting enough also I think not sure who started it maybe it was @thekris did a lending watch and @Deeperblue as well was kinda cool!

Looks like you're selling a few watches to fund the purchase of a different watch?

I lent a watch out, just to see what would happen. If it has any bearing here, I'd be willing to do it again if anyone's interested in testing out something different.

As pointed out above, it is a personal choice.

From a personal perspective, my "resolution" this year is to limit the watch purchases and save through end of the year and see which one or two watches I really want then, and, in the meantime, I should appreciate the current stable of watches.

And I am finding out this "resolution" is no fun😕

I say go for it. There's several pieces in my collection I wouldn't mind selling to keep fund something new.

Pretty decent swap. Hope it works out.

Me too…fingers crossed 🤞

I've done the "distillation" move a few times. Just make sure you don't mind giving up what you are trading. I love that SNR051, btw....

Do you have any spring drives yet?

Yup, the Prospex LX line is a sick value: spring drive, Ti, Zaratsu, sparkle. Also: snap, pop and crackle

It’s made by the fine fellows at GS by hand:

My one caveat is not to trade away anything older and unique and hard to replace. I sold my 2005 SARB RGB for song a few years ago and now regret. 🙁

Yeah been lusting over the SNR051 since it was released… 😁… but I have to choose delicately which one to trade

I agree with you, totally. Been there, done that.

It feels so liberating when you offload a bunch of watches you aren't wearing/are no longer interested in/seriously wonder why you bought them in the first place/etc, and then get something you LOVE.
