Should have gotten her a tennis bracelet instead…I tried to explain that we could get the tennis bracelet at a later date with a simple phone call and she wasn’t having it. She has a DJ 36 with the pink dial and said she didn’t need another pink dial watch

Passed on an OP 36 silver dial because I needed two for my daughters. I now regret not getting just one and waiting for the second…

A new Bluesy and a Submariner with date on the same day. They called me to come choose the watch. I went without knowing what they were. Said no to both. My SA asked twice “are you sure?” I was like “You guys sold me a Sub ( which was for my business partner) 2 months ago. I don’t need these”. He was like “I did?” Hahaha Also Tiffany blue OP 31, yellow OP31 for the wife. She already got a pink one and somehow they thought she wanted more. I called my friend to come and buy it though.

I think I just posted about this on another thread maybe yesterday but passed on the TT SD on March 12th 2020. I didn’t realize the pandemic would explode on us two days later in this country or the fact I might never be offered another new Rolex from an AD! I truly regret passing on this one…

I’ve passed on just about the entire catalogue a few times over except for the white Daytona which I don’t love anyway so no biggie. Biggest regrets? Not scooping a two tone (ss/yg) gmt or the full yg gmt. Also not scooping the Kermit new for 6k

Hulk, Explorer, Daytona (SS / white face)

No regrets - I do like the Explorer but it was so close to the ND Sub that it wasn’t worth it

I passed on a 50th anniversary GMT with the green 24-hour hand. I had a deposit on it because I loved the touch of green but in the end I just couldn’t do it. I rolled that deposit into a Sub and a Pelagos and I’ve been very happy. Earlier this year I saw one of those GMTs pre-owned at the same AD for twice what I could’ve bought it for. Still have the Sub and Pelagos. Still happy.

Few years ago, steel white dial skydweller. Don’t regret it as it’s not a watch for me. Although it is very pretty!
