Hi guys, the question is simple, I am trying to learn from your mistakes because I don't have money to make my own.
And I thought we could share some stories too.

I bought a Pepsi 16710 - was recently serviced, unpolished and bezel had started to fade giving it a really unique colour. It photographed well and I was looking for a statement piece to add to my collection. The reason i regret it is because I don’t like date windows and especially not cyclops but i thought I would get over it finding such a treasure.

It lasted about 3 months until i sold it - ended up losing some money too which made it even worse. The regret wasn’t losing the money though it was not listening to my own set of rules/preferences when it came to watches and fell into the flex/hype of it.
