m4rcus Posted May 7, 2007 Report Posted May 7, 2007 Like many here, I found RWG while looking for a good Panny rep. After what seemed like months of reading and buying several flawed reps, I started building one on my own. This was my project watch... River's Case, JimmyZFu crown guard, Lello Crown, Don Strap, Davidsen Hands shaved down, Chinese movement: It's not perfect, but It was my "grail" watch and I put a lot of time into "building" it. I wore it a lot, but I haven't worn it in months. To make matters worse, I bought a gen Rolex Submariner from an AD this weekend...I don't think this one is going to see any wrist time now. So RWG, what's your opinion: Should I keep it or sell it? -- m4rcus
dadog13 Posted May 7, 2007 Report Posted May 7, 2007 there is a lot of "love" invested in this one...it+s your baby and you definitely shouldn't sell it...you'll regret it one day if you do so...keep it and you'll see that you want wear all the time the rollie...some change in the daily beater will be for sure and this one is a great alternative to the sub... in the end if you decide to sell it...shoot me a PM to see how much are you asking for it...
Maikel Posted May 7, 2007 Report Posted May 7, 2007 I'll keep it...unless someone comes with an offer that's hard to resist.
b16a2 Posted May 7, 2007 Report Posted May 7, 2007 Sell it to me Seriously though, that is a stunning watch you have built there, I wouldn't part with that for any amount of money. Some very rare parts on there!
V Posted May 7, 2007 Report Posted May 7, 2007 Doesn't matter what you have done sometime in the past for it.. At that time it was fun and worth doing it. If now you don't wear it Sell it..
chris5264 Posted May 7, 2007 Report Posted May 7, 2007 Looks very nice,,,I guess it makes sense to keep it, but for some reason when I put a good watch together I end up selling it. It is very cool to make a watch that someone else will enjoy.
Pugwash Posted May 7, 2007 Report Posted May 7, 2007 I don't think this one is going to see any wrist time now. So RWG, what's your opinion: Should I keep it or sell it? Maybe you should sell it to someone that'd wear it. It'd be better for your creation to get some wrist time somewhere.
m4rcus Posted May 8, 2007 Author Report Posted May 8, 2007 Thanks for the help everyone. I think I'm a bit closer to making the decision to part with it. -- m
Lyndonville Posted May 8, 2007 Report Posted May 8, 2007 Sell it. You had fun putting it together, right? Well, good, and you learned something, but, maybe it's time to move on. Mix things up and do something else.
pman Posted May 8, 2007 Report Posted May 8, 2007 In my humble opinion you should sell it. Enjoy the Sub and when the itch hits build another one. I think that's what you enjoy the most anyway, the building. Either way, anyone on this board would like to be in your "difficult" position. Decisions, decisions!!
