Speedman Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 Thought it would be cool to hear, and see, which watch(es) you geeks regretted letting go. I can start with this, a Noobfactory BK Gmt-Master II "Coke".
FxrAndy Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 I miss this one I never wore it that much but still i miss it!
PeteM Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 I think for me it was this one, as its sentimental value, as my first franken and remembering the feeling I got once it was complete....
Watchmeister Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 I never regret letting one go. I make sure they have good homes.
PeteM Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 I never regret letting one go. I make sure they have good homes. You realise we are talking watches not Kids !!!
Watchmeister Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 True but some of those babies have 4-5 years of invested time.
PeteM Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 True but some of those babies have 4-5 years of invested time. :rofl:
w0lf Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 I'm with W. on this. It just works out that all of my builds after awhile go to friends. Even the 1st watch I ever sold (Flav's 111 homage) has a bit of a story to it.
By-Tor Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 This one. It wasn't the most accurate rep but it was the best quality rep build I've seen. Incredible bracelet.
concepta Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 Ohh...don´t get me started here! It´s heartbreaking every time Gen dial, gen crystal, genuine Corum 2892-2 movement Gen movement,gen DDW, gen dial, gen hands Gen movement, gen crown&tube Mega super duper rare RED ocean racer strap, gen dial, gen B13 movement Gen movement, carbon strap + COUNTLESS OF FRANKEN PORTUS!
TeeJay Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 Of all the collection I sold to fund my wedding, this is the only one I truly wish I still had: 42mm 4th Gen Planet Ocean, and a christmas gift from my wife when I first started getting into reps.
Nanuq Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 Gotta say this is the only thing I've regretted letting go. There was a rumor it had once belonged to Clapton but it was unprovable. It sure played nice though!
Utheman Posted October 25, 2010 Report Posted October 25, 2010 This one I sent back to Eurotimez for a movement replacement just before they departed the planet. I regret that I didn't just deal with it here and take it to a local watchsmith.
Guest SliceMaster Posted October 25, 2010 Report Posted October 25, 2010 This BCE TT that I sold earlier this year.....that was a bad move from me...dammit!!!
mellons Posted October 25, 2010 Report Posted October 25, 2010 occasionally I regret letting ang go. even though i am now happily married with 13 kids, i sometimes wonder how different my life would have been. i believe she went on from working in my local diner into drama. She was always quite arty....
Furu Posted October 25, 2010 Report Posted October 25, 2010 Don't worry Angelina is fine here with me and my Daytona:
TeeJay Posted October 25, 2010 Report Posted October 25, 2010 Gotta say this is the only thing I've regretted letting go. There was a rumor it had once belonged to Clapton but it was unprovable. It sure played nice though! :tu: I once went to school with a kid who's dad went to art college with Clapton, who said that Clapton got kicked out for playing his guitar all the time The kid was a douche, and his dad was an abusive control freak, but it's always made for an amusing anecdote
theflyingdutchman Posted October 26, 2010 Report Posted October 26, 2010 ...and this one is not even made anymore...
