Considering re-homing some watches ... have a look!

[dapellegrini]

I have a bunch of watches that I would be willing to sell off, or possibly trade, if anyone here is interested.  Before I start trying to sell them one at a time, I thought I would offer them to anyone here that is interested.

To get organized, I have built a Google Doc listing them here:

docs.google.com/document/d/1sABksWppeo4eIQNt9FlHT4Tg3iNzk7bddnNo0sLNolA/edit?usp=sharing



I will be updating this document for a while yet...

If there is anything there that you are interested in, please PM me - and I will provide MUCH better photos and/or video + as much detail as I can.  I am happy to keep them all too - just running out of space for things on my end and trying to prioritize / declutter. 

Prices marked include priority USPS shipping, so long as you spend at least $200 USD.  For outside the USA, let's discuss, but generally I would be willing to do real shipping cost minus $15 USD (the Priority USPS cost I would otherwise be covering).  I am open to any reasonable offers as well, some of these I have listed at a loss to me, others around what I paid - in all cases just trying to set what I think is a fair price.  I am not trying to make money here or even recover my costs - just looking to pass any of these on to members here who might be interested - for a reasonable / good price.  If you think I am off, and you are interested in something - again, I'm open to any reasonable offer.

Mods: hopefully this is ok - if not apologies and let me know how I might proceed on a theme like this...  Kind of for sale, but only if someone wants something...

With out a doubt dapellegrini is a stand up guy and these watches are going to be as described but probably better! You won't go wrong trading with him. I have and will again too!

Good luck with your 're-homing' dapellegrini - wish I could play a bigger part

Here are some of the Seikos

Misc overflow....  more to find and put here...



Plus I think I will be selling this BB style press w/ aluminum and nylon die sets

There's several watches there that I didn't even know I wanted until today.

Are you changing direction in your collecting, or is this just overflow?

I need to declutter and consolidate.  A while ago I flew past the "300 watches" mark - and would like to get back on the other side of that line.  There are some very cool watches in this lot - and unlike buyee or ebay, you will know exactly what you are getting... I just haven't taken the time yet to photo and document each one of these - I am hoping I can do that job first based on interest here - if any.

This was a big step for me - just picking some to let go, and posting them up.  In a few days, I may start listing specific watches for sale individually, or perhaps I will work up the courage to start selling on ebay.  TBD.

that watch is running - I haven't cleaned the bracelet or case - because I don't have the wrench to open it.  I received it running, and it still is.  One link on the bracelet is bent - I am pretty sure a pair of nylon bracelet pliers would fix it - and there are scratches throughout - though again with such a strong brushed finish, I suspect it would be pretty easy to clean-up - if you want to.

The only unknown to me is the one spot on the dial - not sure if that can be brushed away or not?

Here's an album:

Thanks for this. Good to know my meager collection is nowhere nearly as mad as I thought.

I just hit 40.  Now I don't feel so bad.

Well, the good news is the things I list up do sell.  Sometimes it takes a few weeks to be found on WatchRecon, and apparently you need to bump your sales threads every week or two or they fall off the search there.  

Still lots to re-home.  If there is something in this lot that you would like, most of it is still here!  I am in no hurry, and need to pick the next most "desireable thing" - as the last one ships.  Open to reasonable offers, especially on multiple watches!
