Well. Thanks for the input guys; I have since reconsidered my fervent scramble to sell the lesser gods, but I think I can breath easier. Great advice from all; hasn't stopped my fascination though to streamline!

For me, whatever comes in somethings gotta go. Gotta make room for the new stuff. Also, if its a grail, then usually I'd sell off some to build up the funds for the next fix. Dave

The DSSD is a nice watch for sure! I am trying to figure out how to get my hands on it's little brother the SD. I had it in my sites not to long ago, but it went South. Hoping to pull it off sometime in 2010.

I got rid of a few of my old collection, not very expensive but I really miss them now. Odd really I didn't wear them but now I do not have them I miss them. Its a double edged sword this one, I have a few I cannot part with but I will give them some attention once and a while as getting rid of them would be worse I think. :?

Sell them if you're not wearing them. A simple rule of thumb, unless, of course, the watches have tremendous sentimental value, are so cheap that they are essentially worthless [some Chinese automatics] or they are vintage and of great value and worth having around just for the pride of ownership. Otherwise, dump them. They are pieces of metal, consumer goods, and chances are someone will buy them. Lower your expectations about price, however. Look at how many watches are being bumped up 10, 15, 20 times with multiple price reductions before they sell. As for the Invictas et al, if you bought decent models and have kept them in excellent condition, you can do well on the Bay. When I began collecting last year, I thought the Invictas were swell watches. But I tired of the quartz movements and the ever-increasing size and unnecessary complications of those monsters and sold them. I found ready buyers. As you move up, remember that there is always someone one step behind.

Guess it depends on what type of Salmon you've been eating...some are worse than any Tuna....King (or Chinook)...Red (or Sockeye - usually all bought up by the Japanese for sushi), Silver ( or Coho - my own personal favorite and the favorite of most Alaskans), Humpies (or Pink - the trash usually sent to the lower 48), Dog Salmon which they only feed to their dogs and then there is the Northern Atlantic Farm crap that is pawned off on us. Excuse my little diversion...BTW, I have a hard time selling any of my watches...I have even kept my Invicta Lupah, reminding me that I can occasionally have bad taste and bad judgment! :D

North Norway and specialy Lofoten is known for it's fish: The Jupiner-smoked salmon is down to 12$ the kg at lowest price and still upper quality than what you find in big towns because it's in little traditional production;)
