Opinions on what to do with my ballon bleu?

[LVoeletters]

Hi all, I wasn’t sure where to post this since it’s a watch question- if a mod can move this to the appropriate place that would be great.

I have not bought any jewelry for myself in quite a while. And I’ve always regretted getting the 28mm ballon bleu. It’s stunning and looks so elegant and chic on my tiny wrists. But I wish i went a size bigger. I was pushed towards the smaller size and I tried to justify it to myself by thinking I’d layer it with my love bangle. Spoiler alert- I do not.

I contacted the authorized reseller I bought it from and they are pricing it considerable lower than what I purchased it originally.

I’ve kept the watch in my deposit box and have worn my Apple Watch instead.

what would be the best route to proceed? Do I have to accept and keep the watch as is? Do I lose money and get the larger size? Do I sell and not repurchase?

if you say to still Upgrade- is it worth it to buy second hand? I’ve always bought new pieces so I don’t have any experience in that arena. Thanks.

If you don’t wear it - sell it! Look around, get the best quote and put money towards a bigger size watch you would wear. I’d probably be more comfortable buying a new watch, but if I found something no older that 2 years and considerably cheaper then why not. Good luck

Sell the watch and get the one you want and will wear and enjoy. You will take a hit on the sale, but IMHO, even that hit is better than it sitting unworn at the bank.

Sell and buy preloved from reputable dealer.

Sell and buy what you love! I’ve been selling a lot of my unused items and getting new ones. It’s a great feeling!
