    Which watch are you least and most likely to flip from your collections? Would love to see some photos.

    Left side least, right side most. Should be fun....:)

    So, the last category is the "shopping pile"? I like this format!

    It is. Maybe @RawArcher will share his Ploprofs, as I can't imagine he will ever flip those. They too are quite amazing.

    So you're flipping the JLC? My second favorite watch brand. Been eyeing that same model. ::stirthepot::

    Unless I wanted my father to disown me, I could never flip the JLC. I'm stuck with it until I'm six feet under.

    I think I flipped most of the flippable ones last year. :( ::facepalm2::

    My Breitling Chrono Cockpit (gift from the wife) and Bulova tank (family heirloom) are the only two watches that are immune from the chopping block. Unless the money is needed for a life threatening situation, those two aren't going anywhere.

    I'm sure the flipping of the flippable ones only went to funding more watches that you appreciate and enjoy. :)

    I'll never let go the Breitling Chronomat Blackbird Ref. A13350 (the first watch bought with my own money).

    Most likely these two are the next ones in line to go (but don't know when and only as a pair):

    "the first watch bought with my own money" - the other ones were not the first;)

    1st pic - keep (the 3592.50 and the 2504.80 may be common, but they are sentimental. The ghosted 2254.50 I just really like)
    2nd pic - I can be convinced
    3rd pic - on the way out

    None of these will be flipped - 'cept the middle one was just a short term rental ;)
