POLL: So When Do You Sell a Watch ? ? ? *LINK*

How about some responses on the following question: When do you decide that it's time to sell a watch?

  • not getting enough wrist-time?
  • need some money to fund the next purchase?
  • tastes and collection changing?
  • to prove to yourself that you can?
  • your wife realizes that you have more watches than socks?
  • something else?

Click the link below to get some ideas on the subject from Messrs. Maddox and Stein, along with some photos from Ralf Beinenz.

Enjoy the article, and share your thoughts on this "Unspeakable Act" of selling.
