Do you ever sell?

Hey Watch Lovers. I am curious. Do you ever sell from your collection?

E. When I realize I'm no longer getting the enjoyment I used to or hoped to from a watch. Not all the time, not never, but also not (hopefully) out of desperation.

You left out what is probably the most common answer.

Occasionally.

I'm not a serial flipper , but I have sold watches on occasion. And not because I needed the money. They just weren't being worn.

Fair point. although I would still think this is technically “if there is a good opportunity”

I would rather give them away. I loathe the idea of dealing with strangers to make a deal happen. That said, if I had a friend I trusted who really wanted a watch I no longer wear, I'd be more open.

Careful adds to my collection reduces the need to sell.  I don't treat my collection like a money machine either by selling to buy something else.  Watch money stays watch money; if I do sell (rare) it's because I've upgraded a similar piece.
