What's one watch you highly regret parting with? For me it's this vintage Vulcain Marriage watch. I kick myself every day. I search the buy and sells in hopes that whoever has it now puts it back on the market.....
I did sell my first grail (below) and that was plain stupid...
But then did I miss to buy the most delicious dress watch I ever seen, even if it did cost only 65 euro 1983 and that was partly because I just got my second grail, who also had a sunny dial... And partly because Japanese watches was less than half the price at Canaria, but I didn't find it there and when I came back, was it gone forever & ever 😢
And just look at that magic ultra elegant bracelet...
A marriage watch - marriage watches are an abomination. I’m sorry, but effectively destroying a perfectly decent pocket watch to create an oversized monstrosity is vulgar. I would not spray paint clothes onto Michelangelo’s David, or put Swarovski crystals on the Sistine Chapel ceiling, they are fine as they are. The fact it exists is painful enough…
Haven't sold any watches yet but I think it will be really hard for me to do so.
All the ones I trashed from 1960s,and 70s. Damn lol. Only if I knew what I know now.
Cheers!

Watches from my Dad & Grandpa. I wasn't obsessed with watches then and I'm sad to say they got donated to the local thrift store.
This Chronograph, only one I ever owned, SNN233. It always made me think of steam engines.
