Anyone regret buying an independent maker watch for resale or servicing issues?

Has anyone here bought a watch from even a more prominent independent (Moser, MB&F, Parmigiani Fleurier, Kurono Tokyo) and ended up with buyer's remorse?

For example, did you buy such a watch, even at a discount from the secondary market, and want to sell it later for whatever reason and be frustrated by the inability to resell due to the lack of a liquid market for them? I don't mean flipping because I don't think that exists and mean life happens or your tastes change.

Or did you have regrets due to difficulties servicing, whether generally or given where you live? I've heard nightmare stories (or at least inconsistent stories) about independents' customer service and servicing.

I've never found threads talking about these issues and want to be aware of the broader picture if you venture to independents.
