Thinking of selling a Tudor

Well, I'm thinking of selling my beloved Tudor to fund, well one of my grails a Matte 16800. I'm the type of person that doesn't like to let something go, and I'm afraid for $3900 the Sub is going to go off the market quick... with a box and an anchor.

SO.

The question is, to sell or not to sell?

Agree

If you have doubt, I'd suggest holding off until you're sure you'd be OK with parting with the Tudor.

Your call, whenever I act on impulse I regret it... Not saying you are acting on impulse but I do often then I regret then I buy back and lose $$$ I also would give it some more thought

Sell in haste, regret in leisure. I say keep the Tudor for a while and buy the 16800...........sell the Tudor a while later if you still have the urge.

Agreed, But Tudors are made so well, and look so good, I personally would regret selling that one.

Tough decision. It’s a beautiful piece and I wouldn’t part with it. I’m sure you’ll miss it once it’s gone; even after you’ve got the grail. Like others have said though, the decision is entirely yours.
