    Selling 009 that I bought off the forum famous HDMI. I listed it last time but I had facts wrong about it, thought it was a 007, also didn't realise the domed crystal was a big thing, never mind the bracelet and the hand set. Anyway have a gander lads see if one of you lovely guys could find a use for it. I'm cutting down on watches lately. My wife keeps reminding me I only have 1 left wrist.

    But there are 7 days in a week... 31(ish) days in a month... 365(.25) days in a year :pac:

    I think once your watch number is below the wifey's shoe/bag number it's generally still ok :D

    Hi folks,

    I've just stuck my Seiko Alpinist on adverts.

    Thinking it's going to suffer now in terms of wearing since the Stowa arrived. Kinda want to keep it though so part of me hoping I don't get solid offers on it.

    Thanks,

    Sold already. Probably could have held out for a higher price but kinda broke even lost a bit on the bracelet. I don't have any sellers remorse yet. The Alpinist is lovely and I liked having a Seiko and will own another no doubt in the future but with the stowa and the seamaster I don't think the Alpinist would get a look in. Famous last words

    Adverts is having a wobbler tonight with cloudflare it seems - put up my Tudor Pelagos but got constant errors...now it seems like I've got 5 Pelagos(es?) up for sale!

    Anyway - this is the active Tudor Pelagos ad:
    https://www.adverts.ie/sports/tudor-pelagos-full-set-titanium-diver-25500tn/17589706

    The full set, kept in loving condition (see the plastic cover still on the caseback and the hangtag - I'm OCD like that :p ).

    I think I've priced it very competitively on adverts.ie at €2750 (see link to Chrono24 comparison on my ad) but for known boardsies I'd be happy to do a dealio too (would prefer to sell to a watch enthusiast too).


    Just to let boards members know this is still available 9 watchers but no reasonable offer yet - for boardsies the price would be €2500.

    This is just my opinion but putting price drop in the comments isn’t the best idea on adverts, people will just wait for it to drop again and again it looks like a rushed sale and low offers will be coming in

    The internet isn’t for everyone

    Thanks for the advice - though the watchers will know the price drop is only a 50 euro drop for all the watchers.

    Even better - have obtained clearance from the wife that if the watch isn't sold a new one can be bought regardless :p

    There's a minimum offer requirement too so at most they can only offer €1 after offering 2700 first :D

    @Mick - I'm sure of the watchers are waiting for the watch price to fall to €1000 (as one optimistic facebook marketplacer offered me) but they don't know that I'm in absolutely no rush to sell for rock bottom prices :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,678 ✭✭✭OmegaGene

    Hi folks,

    This arrived today but I don't seem to be bonding with it. Bulova moonwatch

    https://www.adverts.ie/casual/bulova-moonwatch/17733388

    Its in mint condition and the green strap is kinda funky on it. I thought i wanted a Chronograph but i'm not sure now - a lot easier to experiment with this rather than a speedmaster :)

    Wow, Mick that didn't last long. Are you sure you want to sell it so quickly? Maybe give it a bit more wrist time and see if it grows on you before moving on :)

    Yeah I won't rush the sale ad only really hoping to cover costs. I might try it on my brown leather strap later to see how it feels. It is a mint example so won't be in any hurry to sell.

    Will do, meant to be meeting Wednesday evening. I put it back in it's box as I'll probably be dithering otherwise :) it's a lovely watch in fairness but it just didn't click with me when I put it on. The main second hand not sweeping without the Chrono on kinda freaks me out :) I'm just not used of sub dials I guess. I'm tempted to play around with other straps to see how I feel about it but I'm better not
