Maybe not for me...

I took out my 15300 out of the bank today, I am going to Zurich tomorrow and was planning on leaving it to my AD to make the service, it's unworn but sitting in safes since 2009, made the oils dry up and it needs a service.

But I have been looking at it and feeling it for one hour now, and can't explain why but I am a little underwhelmed, I thought it was perfect as my 3 PP are ultra thin, and my AP diver extra thick, to have something a little thicker, I don't know why but I am not impatient to be able to wear it, to be honest it's not that I don't like it, but can't say it does something to me.

When I saw the Jumbo I really found it awesome, while the 15400 didn't touch me in the slightest.

I think I won't do the service, will leave it untouched in the safe, and probably sell it to finance a piece later on that I really want, for now there is nothing on my radar, well there are watches I love, but way to expensive for'me at the moment.

I need to see the Jumbo again, if I really love it and want to complete my Genta collection with a RO, then I light sell it, add cash and get the 15202. Maybe I like my Genta style watches to be ultra thin, the way they were designed to be, when I am playing with my 5711/12 or 5167R, I really feel something, with the 15300 not really tbh.

Anyone else had the same effect and wound up flipping your 15300/400 either for the 15202 or another watch because the one you had didn't do anything for you?

At the same time I love the watches I have in rotation, so putting one in the rotation that doesn't touch me is stupid, I will not wear it.

So even if I will not sell it soon, we can count that I am down to 4 watches instead of 5, but will go back to 5 with the Vouti, now that one I am really impatient to get...
