Bought this
nice little mechanical dress watch from no other than the owner of the watch
forum TimeToTalk Tony Axelzon himself. It was a reference 135.041 and had a
caliber 601 inside. I made an awful deal and paid about $160 for it and got
about $95 when I sold it. This was in May 2010. It was in great condition and
came with and Omega box. If it was the original box I’m not sure off. I’m not
really sure why I bought it. I like the shape of case so that was probably the
main reason. Or perhaps I thought I needed a dress watch? I can’t really remember. On
another strap this one could have looked pretty sweet but it didn’t make anyone
happy looking the way it did on that flat and thin brown leather I received it
on. I don’t think I ever wore it. Sold it fast.
The countdown has begun! I will guide you through my watch flipping journey. One by one. From the first to the last. What made me buy it? What made me sell it? Over 600 watches has come and gone during the years. Instead of boring you with too much technical details I will try to focus on giving you my thoughts and refelections and at the same time trying to add a personal touch to my journey by sharing some moments when the watches has accompanied me through life. Read and enjoy!
