Have you thought about selling your Milgauss, it would cost you more to buy the YG GMT in the future than the amount you would lose on selling your Milgauss now and replacing it later....I hope that made sense!

That is a sweet watch,maybe the next one for me if I can get past a car and wife's next one(her turn) and a few dollars left

.Been looking around and you don't see many under 20K and none at that price especially through a AD.

Yeah I have. I've even though about selling Bluesy since the watches are relatively similar. If I sold both of them I'd only need to come up with around 5k. I'm not as attached to the Milgauss as I am the Blue Sub. I'd cry the day that one left if it ever happened. I don't mean that as a matter of speech either. I mean I'd literally cry like a little girl.

Let it go, no worries. There will always be another deal and sounds like your AD knows you pretty well.

You are expiriening one of the crappy things about this hobby, watches seem to come in pairs. I had just bought a vintage sub that I had been searching for and no more than two weeks later, my AD called telling me that the GV I had a deposit down on, came in. I am not complaining but I would have liked to space them out. Personally, if you can afford the GMT now, do it, the $3500 savings is huge! Best of luck!

LOL!! That sounds EXACTLY like my dad! Gotta love him, eh? :-)

This is a good idea. I think if I came across a unbeatable deal I would sell one of my watches and get it back again later. I think that 18k GMTc will cost you much more later in the future.....who knows. But for an unworn at that price, you can't beat it. You can also buy that SS daytona, flip it and offset almost 2k of the cost.

But I know you dont want to burn that bridge with the AD in doing so.

But like you said timing is not right...hope the best for you!

It's your call, little mister, but frankly, I love the TT Blue Sub so much, everything pales in comparison. I know this isn't a popular sentiment to express on this site, but I think you own 2 beautiful watches and should be happy with those. Nonetheless, if you can afford it, and want to move forward with this new one, knock yourself out!

topcat30093 · 6 August 2008, 03:42 PM

My advice is go for it.What have you got lose, the sale is being arranged through an AD.
Many collectors never take their watches out of the packaging!!!!!!!

oworkman · 6 August 2008, 09:28 PM

If you dont want it, i will take it

A great price - what are you waiting for ? Gold is not going down in the near term

If you can do this, then I would not delay

Best of luck!
