Yup. Pretty much knew after wearing the watch for a few hours. Sold it, and moved on.

Yes this forum does not help with temptation that’s for sure. I’ve tried natos but have not sized the bracelet yet and thrown it on to see if I like it that way.

If we're honest it has happened to most of us. Through collecting I have learned the qualities that make a lasting relationship with watches. I only pull the trigger on those pieces and simply appreciate ones I know will be a passing fancy.

I have. Too many to mention here. But the ETA B.B. trio are ones that I never have those feelings about. I generally keep one on a bracelet and the others on leather/nato.

I would try it on the bracelet and see what you think. The. Put it away and see what life is like without it before letting it go.

I have an opportunity for the Black but not sure about pulling the trigger on that one if I’ll have the same feeling. Maybe it’s the red? Not sure

If it is the ETA black and you are in the red right and can get out without getting hurt I would do that deal all day long.
