Hi guys,

Is there at least ONE watch in your collection(s) that you will NEVER EVER sell? The one which you've decided you will hold on to forever? Mine would have to be this one. Seriously!!!

RogerF · 30 November 2005, 05:55 PM

My TT DJ, it is the one that started it all. What makes it even more special is that it was given to me.

mailman · 30 November 2005, 08:31 PM

My 16610. It's my one and only...for now.

JLC Master Moon without a doubt.

Dads 6263.

Uncle-AJ · 30 November 2005, 11:16 PM

Mine would be my Omega Speedmaster Series 2.

JJ do you seriously think we believe you have a watch that you'd never sell? I don't think so.

BruceS · 1 December 2005, 12:57 AM

I think we've heard those words from you before JJ and in probably an identical posts, but with a different watch

Well, I've learned to never say never, but out of our collection it would be my wife's PAM 114. It's very special to her as is her DJ. As for me, never say never, but I don't plan on ever selling either my Explorer or my GMT.

GerardoG · 1 December 2005, 04:50 AM

2T datejust, jubilee, white roman dial....1st one......

baseballduck · 1 December 2005, 08:14 AM

Hmmmm. Probably my first Sub.

I'm keeping all of them.

dman · 1 December 2005, 01:56 PM

JJ, you said that about the TT Blue sub! I remember it going to your bloody grave.

For me, I would like to think the YM, but life is strange and who knows what lies ahead of me and my family. At least for today, the YM, IWC AT and Panerai 88 are all safe.

I'm with you, Jim. I thought about the question JJ posed, but realized I could not get rid of any of mine, from the first TT DJ with black leather strap to my all black GMT-II. I wear them all, although some not nearly as much as others. I couldn't part with any of my Rollies. Each has a value to me in its own right.

Just remember what I said about the ExpII, JJ. For the YM, you'll have to answer to a greater power of authority... Zemina.

I don't try to deny or fight it any longer. I get what I like, and wear it till I don't like it anymore.

You know, I just imagine a bunch of the guys on the various watch fora looking like that. Geeky and nerdy, talking about tough dive watches,
