Ever let one go that you wish you hadn't?

[DJ2020]

One of my first spring drives was the SBGA375G. It was a beautiful watch in the classic 44GS case design with a stunning GS Blue dial that would shift from blue to black depending on the light.

I can remember being mesmerized each and every time I looked at it in awe in the perfection built into this model.

I wore this watch all the time and had given up a new DJ 36 to get it. In comparison to my previous watch after spending time with both I was super impressed by the GS. But eventually I ended up trading it back in for something else. Honestly I can remember what.

What I do know is that I miss that watch terribly. The other day I was chatting with my SA about this and she mentioned that there still in production. I didn't know nor have I even researched it.
I told her to order me one. So I'm waiting patiently on the arrival.

Has anyone else ever required a piece the let slip from a collection? I am really into the Evolution 9 series. I feel I can make room for a heritage in my collection for this one.

Seems like the right move to get it back.

I have zero regrets for pieces I've let go save for probably one exception and that's a Tudor. With that said, I'd never part with a GS. Yes, now that I've experienced them, I like them that much!
Good call, OP

Sold my Omega Seamaster James Bond for around $1,600 in 2018. I’m finally out of the young family/baby phase and want a nice new watch. The prices have increased a bit since then!

No regrets here, but I have to say that SBGA375 is my favorite GS, along with the EVO9 Mistflake GMT. I’m glad you’re getting it back.

I had a vintage DJ that I think about sometimes. Then again, not having it moved me towards what I have now. So, yes and no.

I have more regrets adding certain pieces than letting certain pieces go.

Not one I had, but one I didn't take action on.

Opportunity to purchase a SLGA019 at about 35% off retail. Haven't seen another pop up with a similar discount since.

Great looking piece.

I have owned SBGA031. Let it go and sorry about that.


Now thinking of SLGA023.

I regret letting go of my SBGA071 limited edition diver. It was a spring drive with the old double logo dial.

I guess my sbgh267. But it never really spoke to me. The whirlpool was great in pics, but kinda boring irl

Did exactly the same for the same reasons. Probably only kicking myself now though as I sold too early and I could have switched into something more interesting if I had waited! :)
