1680
Here are a couple of my favorite shots.
     It was serviced by RSC about a year ago and has original dial/hands. Last edited by Welshwatchman; 19 April 2011 at 04:34 AM.. |

Not even a close call. It's just a watch and you need to build your future. Congratulations on your upcoming marriage and new home!

Damned priorities
 But , you can always buy one of these once you have finished with the house .. You can't live in one of these cases .. not even a super case either

Watches come and go, I know it's hard with the thought of selling but a house and your future is more important

If you have to move a few pieces, what are the others?
That 5512 looks nice, I would try and keep it as long as I could, and maybe move the others. Price point? $5500 usd I'm thinking. |

do you really have to sell it?
can't you save for an extra month or so and keep that beauty?

You can always buy an other watch ..... your first house with the woman you love is way more important.

As a newcomer to this hobby, it is nice to hear a voice of reason from the veterans. I think more of all of you for giving sound financial advice and appropriate prioritization of needs versus wants. Thanks guys!
