| Man, every time I see a Zodiac watch lately I get a twinge of sadness...
I kinda miss the days when I was known as that crazy guy who collected Zodiacs, Z-FREAK!
So, should I sell my current watches (Breitling Avenger Seawolf, Hamilton Sunset, Ocean 7 LM-7) and re-buy all my favorite 3-hand Zodiacs?
Hmmm... ____________________________________ | |

| ..Have to agree with Eric here Alan. Although it sounds tempting, your Breitling, and Hamilton are great watches. They both have a TON of character, and are classics imho. They also show where you were within the hobby at a particular time. So probably wouldn't sell them. Maybe just see how it goes over time. Look around for a while, and see if anything gets your attention. If something does, then cool, if not then something else will eventually catch your eye in time. Something you could try to get back into Zodiac, could be to look into some of the awesome vintage ones that are out there. Some of them have such unique looks it's unbelievable as you probably know. While other have timeless classic styles. ..It's just a thought, but maybe that helps you out. Either way, there are a lot of nice watches out there. ____________________________________ | |

| I would pick up a Zodiac or two as funds and time allows. You kept what you have for a reason right? ____________________________________ Later, GaryRemember we are the caretakers of mechanical art..... Member NAWCC, National Association of Watch & Clock Collectors | |

| Very True...
In fact there are NOT that many 3-hand Zodiacs out there... ____________________________________ | |

| Alan, by asking if you should sell your Breitling et al., I conclude that you are no longer in love with them and may have become ambivalent toward many watches in your current collection. If this is a fair assessment, I recommend selling them, no matter how much OTHER PEOPLE love them. Your collection should contain watches YOU will be excited to wear. | |

| Tom...
Watches are cool but what I miss is hanging out with you guys and seeing your pics and stuff...
Hope to start doing that more again! ____________________________________ | |
