Watches that you miss

All of us sell off pieces in our collection every now and then. Sometimes it is because we need to free up the cash, sometimes it is because we have lost interest, and sometimes it is just plain bad judgement :cry:

Which ones of your ex do you miss, and why?

Here's some of mine, that I miss:

Autozilla:

I miss it's unique styling, blue lume, and the orange hand :mrgreen:

Titanium Samurai's

I also miss this pair very much. Those of us who had both SS and titanium sammies will know that they are quite different. The presence of crown guards flanking the knurled crown, the design of the hands, and the understated hue of the titanium all work together to make a watch that is quite different from it's SS cousins.

If I could turn back time, I'd probably keep these two and hunt for a black to complete the trio :cry:

Vostok Amphibia

This is not an expensive piece, nor is it considered rare. I miss it because the dial and hands have almost perfect and even aging, and there is this dreaminess when viewing the time through the slightly domed acrylic... :lol:

Modern pieces no staying power in my collection, unless I really like them.

Vintage hardly flip, unless clearing like now. :lol:

There's 1 period I bought and flip quite a number of pieces but I don't really miss those.
