....if that's not a collection, i don't know what it is... doh.gif ..so you may need to change your fact... smile.gif

Different people different strokes..while some of us may detest the idea of collecting quartz F-1s, there are those who will ....after few years in this hobby, i am open to seeing all sorts of collection themes....

To me, buyers remorse is not about a design becoming outdated.  Its when buying without doing homework or buying on impulse.  And after slashing the credit card, realizes there is another one out there which you like better or coming soon...My 2 cents is if one actually buy after much consideration, reading, thinking, I doubt the owner will ever see his watch as `outdated' few years down the road and wanna sell it off cheaply......
ignore him ler.. say like watch expert but goreng the facts until so crazy.. my tag aquaracer chrono already 3years old, retail 10k (of coz i bought with super discout) still can force sale for 5k cash.. dunno where he pluck the 20% resale figure out..

if u can find a carrot to chop and claim such high price sure.
and the word u used here is force sale, not many ppl can force ppl to buy something.
the next thing its a aquaracer chrono not a F1. if I am not wrong thats a mechanical while F1 are generally quartz. thats apple to oranges.
it is known fact mechanical generally has better resale value.

I better ignore u.

when people say force sale, means the seller or owner forced to sell it due to require cash la.. how can you conclude force sale means force people to buy something at a high price than they would want to? lol..

I've seen chrono Aquaracers going for less than 4k, never above. Just sayin  whistling.gif

there is a few versions with different RRP. those 4k ones might be the 7-8k RRP ones.
