Sold a watch, this watch on the forum 12 months ago and almost instantly regretted it.

Contacted the buyer recently to see if they fancied selling it back and very kindly they agreed to let me have it back at the same very fair price I released it.

What a guy, wont name them but thanks!

Anyone else been so stupid? :laugh:

Maybe the ultimate outdoors beater?... light, strong, sapphire, titanium, great lume, screw down crown, endless power, legible, kevlar strap, pretty too! And I love the metal buckle holes and keeper.

I take it this is the monocoque, similar to the Ray Mears - I have thought about them and even bid / offered. I had a later version RM Citizen titanium with DLC, which I gave to a friend. I didn't regret letting the watch go, but it was also on my favourite CWC NATO with PVD hardware (since he didn't get along with the bracelet), and he cut the tail off and melted the end. I'm over it now.

Like this one, but I got mine half price in the sale https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Men-s-Citizen-Royal-Marines-Commando-Watch-Compass-Ltd-Edition-No-288-BN0147-5/164532471512?hash=item264ee646d8:g:C4gAAOSw0UJfvAGJ

Yep, it's the mono, my one and only mono... really works for this watch.

I've owned this very SuperOcean twice now:

If it came up again, I would consider it, although I do have it's big brother now, albeit in grey:

I am an absolute sucker for these older Breitling divers. Also had a Colt GMT:

And a yellow Chrono Avenger:
