Tsunami back in da house!

Post by DaveT » Thu Dec 27, 2012 1:45 pm

I've flipped many watches over the years and once I decide to move them I usually don't regret the decision but after selling my Tsunami classic last week I was feeling some major separation anxiety :crybaby:

A few days after I sent out my Tsunami I was doing my usual morning sweep of watch forums and I saw a Tsunami posted for sale, I couldn't help myself, I sent a quick PM thinking I was going to get the "sorry it just sold" response but instead received "still available" , a quick search of the "good guys" forum to confirm the seller was legit and the deal was done!

The only down side was that the shipping was a little delayed due to Christmas but no biggie, doorbell rang about an hour ago :dance:

This one has the MM handset which I like and has the same crown but unsigned and also the triple grip bezel, I prefer the standard divers bezel insert but all in all I am a happy camper and glad to have been able to correct my mistake :grin:

I contacted the seller for this exact watch, only to see it marked sold about 20 minutes later. At least it went to someone who will appreciate it! Congrats!

Congratulations Dave. I recently sold my PVD Tsunami but held on to the polished one even though I have gotten some crazy high offers for it. I don't regret selling the black one but am glad I kept the other.

After having one and letting it go, I've learned my lesson and will keep my new one. These are really fantastic watches and amazing at the price point IMO.
