I don't know how many fake lists my name never actually went on but out of the blue this week it actually happened, for the first time ever, I actually got a call about a watch I had expressed interest in over a year ago and after doing my best to show I ...
That DB28 is a special piece, but you did the right thing by reviewing your reasons for having it and keeping it. Your experience does prompt a very important question for those of us that have determined that new additions require corresponding outgoings...
Altho, a debethune is one of my grails so you already have a grail watch for me lol 😂 But still, there really isn't a replacement for a debethune, like you could find an alternative to a rolex, or even a Patek Philipe but there is nothing that can really ...
I would have missed the side profile, the way the lugs bend and blend into the strap, the crazy multi part hands, the tiny little polished bezel around the power reserve, nothing would replace those. Good luck on your journey to your DB, I think nearly lo...

Things that sit around unused start to bother me. Excess consumption? Bad purchases? Clutter? With watches taking up so little space and requiring so little maintenance compared to say cars, it's tempting and easy for things to grow quickly....
but your post is a bit confusing. Initially I thought you got an allocation for the DB ?🚨 Anyway, to answer your question: there are not rules and simply a GRAIL watch does not exist🙅🏻♂️. As soon as you get it is not a grail anymore and all the flows tha...
If i didn’t, i’d be a miserable enthusiast Btw, like some here, i thought the db28 was the grail! Glad you were able to recover it. I don’t have grails. If i REALLY want something, i’ll find a way to make it happen. Problem is, for me, there’s not much ou...
