Did you sell your watch(es) just to buy it back again?
By now I have done this for 3 different watches - 2 out of the 3 watches I buy-sell 3 times
Some of the reasons I did that:
1) Didn't like it that much during first ownership so sold it, but saw people worn on their wrist or posted the pics very nice, then bought again
2) Liked the watch but had to sell to fund another watch that tempted me more at that time, then missed the watch later
3) Liked the watch but not happy with the condition (or that it was not complete set), hence sold and bought another same but "better" one
4) Backside itchy...erh...how to explain this...just backside itchy lor
5) A combination of some/all of the above
Do you have the same experience? How often and what was your reason?
To me if you sell a black dial to buy a white dial then it is not really the same watch I think...?

), thus resulting in change of "taste" as well. Then he/she will start selling old, buying new. This is a general progression in this hobby, sadly. Why 'sadly'? Because money is always the major issue for most of us
