I have a problem...

I currently like this one...



... more than this one...



... and I am wondering why did I not buy a Tudor chrono earlier... like fifteen year ago...

Why did I wait until now?

It makes me wonder: What kind of watches do I miss right now, that I am going to buy in, say - ten years from now - and then think: "Why did I not buy this one earlier?"

Am I alone?

Best,

A

The Tudor chrono is harder to find at a decent price. The Exp II can be found everywhere and still sold new, I think. We want what we can't have.
As for the future, well if I knew that I wouldn't have lost so much in my 401K.

Yep, all the time with me.

But if you see it and can afford it without borrowing then have it. If you really, and I mean badly don't like it you can always sell it. Having said that some of the ugliest models made are worth the most!!

I am after a chrono but also wouldn't mind and Expy!

We only have one chance so .....................

best of luck, whichever way you choose

Si

Variety is good. I don't want a collection of all Rolex or all Panerai or all Omega. Little bit of everything. Just stuff I like.
