Watches - another OCD problem
-
If you are pleased with your purchase and think you paid a fair price, what's to be bitter about?
That's a fair point. If I keep it for a very long time, it's no biggie. However, sometimes I get tired of a piece and I want to sell it. I don't mind losing some money doing that - paying the rent if you wish - but I don't like taking a huge loss.
The Tudor Black Bay Bronze Blue (BBBB!) is lovely but I'm not sure it's available for me in the US. We'll see.

Interesting description of the Kermit.
One of their most polarizing revelations came in 2003 with the release of their 50-year pat on the back to themselves, the Rolex Submariner 16610LV. Introduced to commemorate the half century of one of the most iconic timepieces ever made, the anniversary edition of the world’s favorite dive watch shocked the Rolex faithful with its bright green bezel.
Like any great upheaval, it split opinion, gaining as many detractors as admirers and clogging up countless forums with those arguing for and against.
To its fans, it will always be known as The Kermit. Those not so enamored of that gleaming emerald surround nicknamed it The Vomit Sub. It’s not easy being green!

Bucherer have just bought Torneau, so you might be able to order one in the not too distant future.

@Graeme Torneau stocked Tudor even before the Buy I think.
Bucherer do a version of the Black Bay Bronze with a blue dial. It's only available through them.
Ah I see, that is one nice watch.

Ah, the Mare Nostrum?
I saw one in Selfridge's in 2016, and it was still there in 2017. It's one of the few Panerais that I'd like. Shame about the enormous price tag.
The new Montblanc 1858 Monopusher Chronograph uses a similar Minerva movement, but is smaller, cheaper, and greener. It was unveiled at SIHH, and Monochrome got to play with the prototype.
If that's too discrete, Montblanc offers the Timewalker Rally Timer…
