sell my Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 / 1A - 010

it just is not getting worn at all, I still like it a lot but it is an expensive item to have sat in the safe permanently.

A quick look on Chrono24 suggests I should get what a paid for it.

Anyone else got a watch they do not ever seem to get to wear?

Thoughts?

Me, though nothing quite like a PP biggrin

I remember when you first posted a shot of it here, you seemed pretty keen on the watch then. Get it out the safe for a few days or so and then see if you're still considering selling it.

Like Cardshark said , try and leave it on your wrist a while , you may grow to like it. Some first world problem that!

They do hold there value though.

thanks all - and apologies if it sounded a bit pompous!

Indeed it is very much a first world problem, I'll give it a go this week at work and see how it goes.

It's obvious the watch isn't for you — if it was, you wouldn't need to be coerced by others to force yourself to wear it. The buzz/excitement of a new watch, especially one with all the hype of Patek branding, should make it an automatic grab!
