At what point did you - or will you - scale back or sell your collection?

Yes, that Italian albino dial mod you already sold! 馃榾
aaah yea, i miss that one the most!
it took a while to decide on that one, posed, retracted, reposted, re-retracted! i wish i could keep em all!
funny, I nearly picked up the dial again recently on the'bay. i wasnt 100% it was real and still would have needed the grey handset... and the speedmaster to put it in... maybe... someday! lol

also, another reason I have slowed, is that I think I have bought/sold just about every type of watch out there that I have ever wanted (with exception of a couple oddballs like the seiko Kodo Constant-force Tourbillon (for obvious reasons).
nothing really grabs me and says YOU HAVE TO HAVE THIS, at least nothing that I haven't already owned or something so similar....
I realized that the initial love affair fades quickly and that I would rather have the money in the bank than the similar xxx diver in a box in my safe. i always think this next one I buy is the daily I have been looking for. then it isn't. and I go back to wearing a black sea master of some sort, that always makes me happy...
the thrill of the hunt is better than the kill i guess.
oh, that bell curve above is sooooo accurate!!!
