Title: Is your watch serial no important to you?
Post by: Clicko on November 19, 2015, 11:17:05 AM: Just want to get the general idea of whether enthusiasts here are choosy on the watch serial no.? Will you not buy if the serial no. is not good or not lucky you? This applies to non-numbered edition of course. For me, I am not so particular, but will just take if not too bad (444 etc will be out).

Post by: Pajero on November 30, 2015, 12:17:46 AM: Yes, I do check the serial number to see if I am okay with the combination. When I purchased my first GMT II, I requested the sales personnel to show me a few new GMTs that they have so that I can select the serial number that I like the most.
