Selling my watch.

I might consider a swap with my autographed 'Ronnie Pickering' Tag

A huge regret of mine was getting a posh watch

I've never regretted buying my Cartier Tank Watch. It keeps perfect time, it gives me pleasure every time I look at it, and sometimes it helps reassure clients that I dress this way because I like to, not because I can't afford not to.

A friend of mine says " a man with one watch will know the time of day, a man with two watches will never be quite sure "

I have seven and don't wear them

Yes - it started getting like that and going green that after I wore my quality Rolex watch.

I have had watches. I have bought, and been bought watches. I don't wear watches as they never seem to do survive beyond showing off my left wrist suntan..

You should have bought Omega. Mine hasn't been off my wrist for 5 years (could do with a service tbh ) loses maybe a minute every 6 months

When I bought my Omega I was told it only needs a service once every ten years

Quite happy with my Decathlon watch.

It's been many years since I last wore a watch. I suppose I could get another one if I had the time.

Have you thought about Gumtree? No sellers fees and you would have to deal with the buyer face-to-face.
Wouldn't recommend EBay due to time wasters and underhand dealing with higher end items (scammers).

I have 12 watches, all hanging on the wall in my office. They are not expensive watches and I only wear one when I go to school. They are all different styles and colours and it is a great ice breaker with the kids.

I'd rather not sell something of value like a watch face to face on Gumtree. Chap on here recently got robbed and stabbed for his iphone during a gumtree 'sale'

Yes if anyone ever sells something worth a lot on gumtree make sure you take several large people with you go to get the money and never send anyone money for goods ever.

there's a nice story about one of the top professional poker players. Things were going well and he bought a Rolex. A while later his friends noted an upgrade to an Audemars Puget (sp?). Then a while later he was seen wearing a Patek Phillipe. Next time he was in town he wasn't wearing a watch, but seemed to be playing as well, and as sucessfully as ever. He had realised that true luxury was never needing to care what the time was
