Watches I had to let go by (not buy!) :-\ >>>

[Thomas]

Hi folks!


A lot of great opinions in the "Should you take out a loan..." thread, I must say. That generated a lot of interesting conversation!


And obviously, as I wait for my lifetime ultra-mega-super grail of all time to arrive, and while I pay off my loan, I can't really buy any other watches.  


But nothing says I can't look!!!  


And boy does it hurt to see some beauties going cheap!!


Here are a few that were on my eBay "watch list", that I had to just sit by the sidelines and let them go....

Enjoyed this post.  A few real bargains in there.  Tissot is a stunner.

That Tissot is gorgeous!

Think you've made a smart move, Thomas.

If you read the post, you may see the part where I say:


"Here are a few that were on my eBay "watch list", that I had to just sit by the sidelines and let them go...."


And then the seller's name is listed with each watch.

They only went for such low prices because Thomas wasn't bidding !!

The KS, Lord Marvel and Silverwave are right up my alley

Letting that 1955 Seiko Super and the Seiko Goldfeather go by, hurt me the most!

I had that bell on my watch list as well, and am kicking myself for forgetting to bid.

[sundog]

Didn't necessarily let this one go by.  Put a bid down quickly before a meeting, not realizing it how much it doesn't come up for sale, so bid too low, now can't find it anywhere.....grrrrrr.....only found it on Roachman.com and no where else.....and he doesn't apparently sell anymore, just a dated website...



If anyone sees one of these...LMK...Thanks
