a man is a confirmed+chopped watch lover/wis/nut/nerd/geek/etc when he stares more at a woman's watch than the woman - be it her face, her boobs, her butt, her curves, her legs or any part you fancy! :eek: :D :s13: :s12:

keep all. hoard all. =:p "it's mine! all mine!! nobody touch my toys!!!" :eek:

actually, yours is a common dilemma many watch collectors face: how to consolidate our collection without seller's remorse.

at the beginning, we love every watch we buy. cos we voted with our wallet. why else buy it?

but it's when it comes time to let go that we're faced with the consequence of our purchase choices/decisions: which piece will be taking the biggest depreciation hit?

that's why i try to steer towards pieces that has an upside potential (or at least won't tank badly in the resale market). of course, it's still guesswork, cos it we knew which watch(es) will escalate in value, we'll empty our bank accounts and soak up what available supply our funds can tahan.

imho, your LE zimbe is already a collector's classic and will definitely hold or even exceed it's value in future. your ventus mori is a damn value bang-for-buck unique watch with a solid seiko movement+3 straps at a upper tier seiko 5 price.

unless funds are really tight, or you need liquidity to snag another watch, your choices so far won't lose value. maybe even gain if you hang on.

you can see watches as a potential investment (esp full set w/ b+p/c+m) besides enjoying it. not necessary to rotate them on-wrist regularly.

just my humble 2c...

Watch has to be worn on the forearm, pink nails must be long and preferably with pi sai and nicotine stains. Non SEL bracelet is a must to achieve that annoying rattling sound when you shake your wrist and forearms every 5 minutes to either tell the time or tell the world you have a lolex

You need to put one leg up on chair, stick a toothpick in your mouth, wear jade rings and lim or gao
Not to forget the permed hair.

Realised the space/gap between the day/month and the brand is wider in the photo compared to original google image. :s22:

It was a really really good deal. Some say its too good to be true. Friendship price from one of my friend's boss collection, thus the purchase with no hesitation!!

Yes it is the older tritium dial which got me interested in too. And yes it is a holes case. Sadly, it didnt came with box nor papers.

hole case!
