Damn, sorry to hear about the Seamaster... oh, well, I'm sure you got over that , best of luck with selling the Rolex, I know they are great watches but somehow I never really fell for them, everybody has one and I really want something more challenging and unique.
I got over her fairly quickly, but not my watch regret it , but whatever. Yes I never really fell for Rolex either, Initially got and my father sported it around for a couple months, then he just left it in a watch winder, I only wore it a few times as well. Formula 1 is now my running watch.. and on occasion for the gym too.

Nice.. I see Rolex as the Ferrari of watches, value seems to skyrocket on the more exclusive models. Funny thing, my Monaco keeps more of an accurate time than my Rolex - I overhauled my Rolex once already (losing 5 minutes two weeks or so I believe).. I haven't had to go that route with my Monaco - its been keeping me content as far as quality and time keeping.
