I've done this a few times, flipped for the same piece. It happens, sometimes just so you know for sure if you love it or not. I won't get started on my list, but trust me, it's up there. 😳

Congrats!

droptopman · 12 April 2016, 01:11 PM

Yep...16613 and 16014. Had both twice. Lol I have neither now. Miss the bluesy. It was the only touch of gold I had left in my collection.

bbressler · 12 April 2016, 01:51 PM

Sell me once, shame on me. Sell me twice, shame on you! Or something like that

I can't believe this will be your fourth purchase of it. Don't sell this one!

Tudor66 · 12 April 2016, 02:01 PM

I have purchased and sold, then repurchased the same model a few times-

Nothing wrong with that - this is why it's a hobby.

Muzz · 12 April 2016, 02:19 PM

Congradulations!! Yes, I have done this far too much and I am embarrassed to list how many times.

DCheeta · 12 April 2016, 03:15 PM

No, I never have. I sold a 216570 that sometimes I'm really tempted to buy again, but I just remind myself that I sold it for a reason (too large for me).

gwalker · 12 April 2016, 04:03 PM

Yes. I've had 2 SubCs and wanting another one. This time I think I'll go with a LV

I think it's the "grass is greener" phenom, but in the end sometimes it is greener, but many times it is not. I think we also buy what we really like first, then places like TRF, sway us thinking what might really like, or should have is this or that. But in the end we end up with models that spoke to us in the beginning.

J Scott · 12 April 2016, 10:44 PM

As of this writing, no. But that could possibly change.

Congrats on your Incoming!

Best,

I bought the explorer II but sent it back cause I was uneasy about its authenticity. now im on the hunt for one from here, or AD that I can trust. does that count?

ernie2 · 13 April 2016, 01:51 AM

in early 2000s, I bought an Explorer 1 114270 from Tourneau. I forgot why but I sold it on ebay a year or so later. Then I missed it so much and bought another one from non-ad at a similar price I sold the Tourneau one.

So in the end, it cost me the same to own the 114270. But since my current one is from non-ad, I don't have papers on it.

It is like when they say you don't know something/ someone meant to you until you lost it/her/him. Every now and then, something would remind me of one of my ex-girlfriends . I wonder what she is up to and what my life would be like if I did marry her back then. But then it is all water under the bridge and I move on.

Pardon me for the over exposure of my personal life

stockjock1975 · 13 April 2016, 02:44 AM

I bought a Patek 5167 and sold it after a few months because i thought it wasnt for me. Then regret set in! Ended up buying it back several months later and very happy i did!

ocwatching · 13 April 2016, 02:54 AM

Did you get it back?

speedolex · 7 August 2016, 09:40 PM

Yes. I foolishly flipped my 1016 ten years ago and only a few months ago was able to track down one as nice. Never again.

fskywalker · 7 August 2016, 10:03 PM

Yes, guilty as well! Not Rolexes, but have purchased a few Omegas more than once.
