Third time’s the charm

Hi everyone

Just wanted to share that I purchased the BB58 for the third time and that it’s (hopefully) here to stay this time around. There was no particular reason for selling except perhaps boredom?

Timeline:
1. Bought the first one in Jul 2019 and sold it in Sep 2019
2. Bought it again in Sep 2020 and sold it in Jan 2021
3. Bought it yet again today and it’s going nowhere anymore (fingers crossed!)

Anyone has experienced this peculiar stuff as well?

Cheers
V.

I’m not sure which scenario is worse: 1. selling and rebuying or 2. Keeping but never wearing. I’m in the 2nd camp and embarrassed that my BB58 has never left the box after owning for more than a year. Even bought a Rubber B planning to make it my summer beach watch...

Summer 2020 came and went but lucky me there’s another coming up!

I had the original BB58 for about a month when it first came out and then I found a 114060 sitting in a store window which I had to buy. The BB58 got little wrist time after that. Fast forward to last week, I picked up a BB58 blue and I'm really enjoying it. I'm not a massive fan of the bracelet but I like everything else about the watch. It's also running at +1 sec/day which is just as good as most accurate Rolex.

Good job

Now buy the black one again to complete the cycle. After all, you really do need to have both the black and the blue one.

Me as well. Also with the BLNR. This was back when you could get both the Sub and the BLNR at a discount from a grey dealer.
