With a view to picking up another piece ?

Has the thread had any influence on your decision ?

Seriously?

Well I hope it’s a choice rather than a need. And of course if able, replace it with something you like better and wear more often

Yes sir it’s a choice. Since I found this forum and really started looking and learning about all the models my taste has changed. I was very proud of how hard I worked to get that watch but I was very happy with what I got for it. I’m just holding out for a bit. I’m going through a stainless steel phase and white gold right now. So I think my 2 tone SD and my rose /stainless yachtmaster will go
Next. I find it very fun trying to find the watch in want comparing prices, meeting new people , etc. learning a lot from this forum. Apparently I won the d bag of the year award per the response on one of my other post!! Lol. It’s good to get other people’s perspect stuff.

No the thing the thread has done most is made me feel like an as- and a d bag often. The whole point of the post was to just show how proud I was of my work and sweat that went into that watch to get it and see if anyone else has that one special watch. It was my unicorn watch. So I thought I would never part from it. I had clearly explained my family comes first and I am always last. Then it took a turn for the worst with people assuming I value the watch over all etc. it is jsut a watch I know that I’m not a dumb dumb. I was just very proud of that watch. I will tell you one thing my post get a lot of views and comments. My anger at AD was a hot one. I had to shut it down for fear of more negative backlash. This is the first time I have been involved in any forums or social media. I do not do Facebook , linked in , twitter etc. im the guy that just got Netflix 6 months ago and still had full cable packages at my house!! it’s all good though really enjoying the forum and learning a lot. I have learned never ever ever ever offer someone money for a watch at an AD that is for sure per responses to my anger at AD. Haha.

When I left the store with my 23k cash from selling my unicorn watch today. I had a big smile on my face because it was even more cash to look for another new watch. My wife has been busting my butt for all the new watches I have bought in the last month. I’m up to 4 new to me as of now. So the best option was to sale the one I would not lose big on due to what I paid for it originally and that was the most expedience watch in my collection. If I am going to buy another watch over 20k I would prefer buy new and have my name on the warranty card
