Regrets, I've had a few..

Okay chaps, anything you regret not buying when you had the chance/ wish you hadn't sold?

I, for instance, have sold the below, and kick myself for it:

Blancpain 50 fathoms
Pre mooon Speedy
Navitimer 806, completely original, and dual signed as retailed in france by LIP. Swapped for an Aerospace. Why??

Possibbly worst of all, about 8 years ago, for the same money, I could have had a s/g Datejust or an early Milgauss. I don't need to tell you which I chose, this being a regrets post.

Not quite in your league, but missing out on a red-faced Oakley crush. £7.50 on eBay, and yes it was an original. Oh well, more out there!

In my defence, I had a buyer for the Datejust, and this was just before sports models went silly - I can remember prices on both single and double red subs that would make you weep now. The Milgauss was more of an oddity to me at the time, I think I thought it was a second rate Ingenieur wannabe.

Oops.

I regret having received my 21st birthday present Rolex Tudor. It never ever kept time, went back to the factory so many times, never got repaired satisfactorily, and in the end it went overboard in the middle of the channel, so fed up was I. I was glad to see it go, even though my favourite auntie gave it to me. I've never had a Rolex since.
