Time to say goodbye....

I said fair well to the Ceramic Blue Sub this week: I will always love this watch but right now I prefer to part with it in order to fund other prospects. My Explorer I though will be going nowhere

Same happened to me. I let mine go to help fund the D500. I think about her from time to time. Most beautiful Rolex imho but a bit blingy for my taste.

I've done the same. Twice.

I really do love that watch but I go in phases with it. Fortunately it's easy to come by so if one has to go, that one is easy to replace again!

Yes. That is how I started to feel about it.

Ooh, do I love a 16613. It's on my mental list of pieces to acquire.

My Bluesy wasn't getting much wrist time so out it went. No regrets.

Funny thing. Dell Curry is rocking TT blusey right now. Watching his boys going at each other.

I can’t see myself selling my TT bluesy. The DJ41 on the other hand, I will not think twice.

It’s always hard to let go of a watch.

Interesting. I don't even have an Explorer at the moment, but I often times get the urge to clean house and just go with a simple Explorer.

Sometimes it’s just time to let them go. It’s nice you have your explorer to keep you company though!

I sometimes think about parting with mine. But I can not bring myself to do it. I guess if I was selling it to fund something else that would be different.

Wow......it's like selling one of your children and keeping the other

How could you do it man
How could you do it

Watches have feelings too ...poor bluesy

I hope she goes to a billionaire like
Little Annie and is then cared for and loved...
