2023 ins / outs & SOTC
Discussion
Well 2023 was another year that I failed to reduce the size of the collection
Outgoing

I sold the FF because, although lovely, it was a bit small for me & had appreciated in value, so why not cash in?

The Dark Star was one I shouldn't really have bought on reflection, but a friend needed some cash & offered it to me at a decent price when they were trading well above RRP. Sold through Chrono 24 eventually.
Incoming

I'd been after a 103 Ti Diapal for ages. I don't normally look on eBay, but someone tipped me off to this watch. The eBay authentication process seems to work pretty well. The bracelet needed a bit of TLC but has come up pretty well after a bit of effort with Garyflex blocks.

I'd been after this Damasko for a while. I had the bracelet already, but it didn't fit my old DC 67 all that well. It fits the DC 82 perfectly.

An unplanned purchase. I liked SPB381J1 when it was launched but not enough to buy one new. When this was listed for a very good price on TZ-UK I couldn't resist.

The 126711CHNR was one I'd wanted to try for a good while, but I don't have a tame AD & was not prepared to pay over RRP
So the SOTC is now

The PVD Autavia & EZM1 are still up for sale. Who knows what 2024 will bring?
