    This is hilarious, because I'm the guy that bought that watch from the Time Teller Store. Great purchase experience BTW. It was sent out quickly and I received it right away. I never realized that you cared for it so much. Sorry to do that to you.
    Sellers remorse is also something I have experienced. I had someone contact me on Instagram asking to purchase my Watchco Omega Seamaster 300. I don't know why I agreed but I immediately regrated the sale. I think I was in a depressed mood for several weeks. I finally remedied the situation after about 3 years by hunting down a vintage late 1960's Seamaster 300 that I adore and will not sell anytime soon.
    Again, sorry to be responsible for your pain, I had no idea. The Gold one is definitely very cool, congrats.

      I was hoping that the person who bought the watch posted, and I wasn't disappointed. This sounds like a happy story all-around... you have a piece that you enjoy and it seems like Triple T has found a beautiful replacement! Love it.

    When Rolex prices went nuts I sold and explorer 36 and a sub with date. I used that money to buy watches I always wanted. Buttttt… while I am enjoying my watches I do occasionally get stung with the pain of regret. Good video on sellers remorse. 👍

    I literally this week parted with two watches I already miss. I sold my BB36 blue dial and Rail Master black dial to fund some of a Rolex 16713 root beer and I already miss having a pair of watches that could go anywhere with no worry.

      BB36 blue is underrated. Harder to get now too. I love mine.

    I experienced seller's remorse when I had to let go of my Sony A7 II. It was my first camera and I really loved using it. Had to let it go so I could get my dream camera, which was finally available at a more attainble price point.
    I love the new camera, it's everything I hoped it would be, but your first is always your first.

    I experienced that too. It was "just" a Casio PRT-10 and I said to myself "Well if I want it in the future, I will probably find one, because it's Casio..." Guess what. The PRT is hard to find, especially in a good condition. Most are really worn and sellers still want a lot of money for it.

    I know how you feel. I also collect Hard Rock cafe Pilsner glasses from the cafes I have visited. First about 10 years ago Hard Rock discontinued pilsner glasses to go to Pint glasses. But I had a Hard Rock hotel Chicago Pilsner ( the hotels all used the "meatball" design like the cafes but the hotels meatball was violet.) I had someone online offer to trade me a 25th anniversay london Pilsner and a Istambul Pilsner for my Chicago hotel . Since I live in Chicago at the time I thought I would just go get one to replace. But wouldnt you know, The hotel shut down and re flagged . I have spent years looking for another one and havent found one. That.... is sellers regret 101.

    Oh the sellers remorse. My two regrets selling: Omega X-33 ref. 3291.50 and my Fortis Cosmonaut Chronograph Lemania 5100 ref. 602.10.142. How I miss them both. Regretted it almost instantly after selling both.

    I haven't done it, but believe rebuying is quite common. With me, its about trying particular genres of watches, selling and returning to them. For me, this genre is dress watches. I am just not a dress watch kind of guy. Also, I am an outlier as a subscriber to your channel as I largely prefer dive watches that are quartz or solar...like the Tuna 300m or Citizen BN150. I try a mechanical watch and just can't stand how much attention they require for proper winding and how inaccurate they are, so I sell them. I have owned many automatics like Sarbs and Turtles etc, only to sell them. Grab and go is better for me as I rotate my watches depending on mood and occasion. So a slight variation on a 'particular watch and subsequent rebuy. Trial and error' is largely how humans learn.

    An Omega Seamaster 166.0216 cal. 1020 shouldn't be too difficult to find. It's not a particularly rare model and with a price range of around 800 - 1500 $ depending on the condition they're fairly cheap. There's a nice range of dial colors, too. Afaik they're not particularly sought after either, since many Omega enthusiasts don't like the movements from the cal. 1000 series, because they have a reputation of being unreliable compared to older cal. series. In my experience that's not true at all. I have a Seamaster 166.0169 cal. 1012 with a blue dial, which is one of my most reliable and accurate vintage Omegas.

    Shame most have the day date, still very available too. The great thing about this particular ref is the round crystal, much more easily found and replaced than the TV dial square or rectangular acrylic. To the point that the ones with damaged glass are effectivly written off if they cant be buffed.

  • @jim2950

    I have a Omega that I love. It is my number 1 watch. It is a manual wind 1949 Omega Tressor. It is a seventeen jewels and is accurate. It is a 18k Rose gold black face with a second
    sub dial. I bought an 18k rose gold Omega buckle. It has a black horween leather band. It is absolutely stunning. It looks like the Modern Omega Tressor but a little smaller. The new
    Omega cost $17,000. I have $2000 in mine. I will never wear this watch in a major city. To me, I have reached my top watch. It came out of a old collection in Israel. I own several watches.
    but it is the King of my collection. I wear it most of the time. I also collect pocket watches. I have a pocket watch holder on my belt . My top pocket watch is 1 1896 Illinois 24 jewel
    coin silver Illinois railroad with a real nice sterling silver chain. So if I feel uncomfortable about wearing a watch I just carry a pocket watch that no sees.

    Sold Seiko Presage “Fuyugeshiki” and “Sakura Fubuki”. Very beautiful watches I regret getting rid of. The SPB105 and the SBDC077 divers. Lastly, I regret selling my first “real” watch. A quartz Bulova I wore regularly in college.

  • @HawaiianHorology
    @HawaiianHorology 9 месяцев назад

    The Omega watch is very stunning! I too have seller's remorse I sold my Oris Aquis green and gold that I still think about to this day. The gold bezel and the green dial with gold accents were a perfect match!

  • @eurocraftccr
    @eurocraftccr 9 месяцев назад

    This is beautiful watch, it probably wouldn't work for everyones wrist but it is still very nice piece.
    Were you just able to find quick or did you actually spend time doing it.
    Until now I never really sold any of my watches from the collection but thinking if I should sell like 3-5 to get one.
    I wonder if you have big personal collection? like 5-6 or 50-60 ?

    @ehrenkrause9861 9 месяцев назад +1

    You may call it sellers remorse but to sell one and even though the stainless is pretty dang cool but to get the upgrade which is a little more limited I'd say that's a good trade. ☺️👍

    My sellers remorse was selling off my FOIS speedmaster especially when I got it at retail discounted 1k made a profit exchanged with a yatchmaster 40 rhodium dial so it is kinda half remorse half not coz I have the Yachtmaster 😅.. I do want to re buy the speedmaster when I save up some extra money, though 😂

    The only watch I really regret selling was my SARB017 as I got tired of it at one point. Still can't force myself to buy it used at the current insane prices (plus mine was pristine, not even a scratch inside the lugs), and the new version with the cyclops window is 🤮

    Sometimes we take some decisions which are tough to stick to it in future....but past is past....done and dusted.....and thinking about it we do take weird decisions...in the given case, first watch was awesome and searching for it you bought a second model, but it is not as good looking like first....as you asked...my take is just forget and move on 😊
