And quite a few times.
1) wanted a James Bond seamaster but got the speedy instead
2) wanted the Rolex Coke but got a Zenith Chronomaster instead
3) wanted a Milgaus but got a Kermit instead
4) wanted a Sinn UX but got the Longines LD instead
It keeps happening but I don't regret my decision.
Now, I pull the trigger rather slowly.
have you ever changed your mind and bought another watch at the last second?
Have you ever walked into a watch store 100% sure of what model you were going to purchase but you end up walking out with another watch? Just happened to me. Ready to pull the trigger on AP Royal Oak Offshore. Tried on the watch many times in the store w...
Yes. And have gone in planning to buy
Bought another watch? Yes. And have gone in planning to buy, but didn't. And went intending to buy nothing, but did. And met a friend who was planning to buy a watch, and bought one off his wrist while walking through the parking lot. Alas. There is no pr...

It pays to have a 24hr cooling off period... I actually had a 1 month cooling off period when I bought my royal oak! But of course, you would have to make a deposit so that's bad enough in committing to the deal. If it helps, delayed gratification does wo...
Absolutely!
Went to buy the IWC Ingeneiur and walked out with a Rolex Explorer. You are correct that a lot of forum knowledge goes out of the window when you are in the store. Buti am very happy with the buy. J. PS: if you feel bad after a couple of days with the Day...
it happened to me just recently in Taiwan..
In the plane and before boarding, i was thinking of getting the Rolex Air King. Very excited, tried many Air King models, and unfortunately, the older versions are more wearable for me in design and simpler dials. And the size of 34mm, actually was too sm...
Yes indeed...
a long time ago I went in to buy a moser perpetual 1 in platinum and ended buying the ludovic ballouard upside down... strange but true. it happens to all of us.
