Stupidest move ever

OK I admit it. Not sure if there are any old threads like this, could also be called greatest sellers remorse. I'll show you mine if you show me yours. This was an early (2003) ebay sale of mine. What was I thinking???? Waltham Khaki in silver Depollier case, with original Khaki stem

I meant original crown, and oh yeah original Depollier canvas strap with clasp.

It’s an interesting watch for sure but it’s about 30mm, right? I just don’t see myself realistically wearing a watch that small. A lot of watch regrets are usually based on value (I should have kept it for a few more years to make xxx amount of money) but I think a real regret would be selling a watch that had sentimental value or had strong ties to a period in your life.

All good points. In my case it was a combination. I have no issue wearing small watches, most WW1 watches are basically 3/0 movements. But the strap was very small and I could barely get it over my hand. The original Depollier straps have a somewhat complicated mechanism and you can't really open them up a lot. This was part of my trench watch collection (I still have a few) and I had never seen a Tiffany retailed one. I did get a decent price at the time, and always thought I could get another, but so far..... As far as your last point, very very true I have my fathers 1940's Elgin, and the first Omega I ever bought, a 145.022-69 pre moon DON Speedmaster, no plans to sell that!!

some sellers call 30mm midsize on ebay like were in the present day 50/60's all over again
