PRS-18a. Sold it to a friend, but he just offered it back. Guess he sort of rented it for awhile. I'm happy that it's coming home. Not sure why I sold it in the first place but I think he wanted more than I did at the time.

I miss the old Sinn 656. Sold it because it didn't get much wrist time - it was too pretty and I didn't want to damage it. It went to a good home though. Same with my original MkII Blackwater, although I was able to pick up a user grade type I that's become one of my primary EDC pieces.

Biggest regret was my 01 SAR with a 2 digit serial number- one of the early ones and it was in great shape too. Sold it off because I thought the GSAR was my grail but I was wrong. I now have a SAR-D but I do still miss the old one.

My old Hamilton 33mm Khaki mechanical and my Seiko SBCA001.

Both so nice, i am constantly on the prowl in the for sales section.

This thread made me realize I have only flipped one watch in my life. And it was Citizen Nighthawk in PVD. It is a great watch but I somehow could not get attached to it. But when on the way to the spot where I should meet the buyer, a regret kicked in. But I just could not back up at that stage, of course. Only after seeing the guy who was almost jumping with joy after putting it on his wrist, I calmed down and was actually very happy that it went to someone like this. It was his first real watch. Great feeling.

Nice story. It's good to be able to make someone else happy.

I used to own this watch. I only bought it for $1k and then sold it for what I paid but that was what they used to sell for. Who would have thought it would be worth 5x as much these days. Nice watch but not worth 5k. I only regret selling it because of todays value. I have too many regrets. I try not to look back unless you want to cringe.

One more than others was an early Zodiac gmt. I also miss my Fortis GMT
