Thank you for all the feedback
I enjoyed reading your thoughts and just rummaged through the current collection.
Here is what I can easily sell as they have no emotional value:
The rest I am having issues with letting go due to different reasons, mostly associated memories 
I might through in a few lower end pieces to get to 200k, I can manage to draw up the remaining cash.
Man this is one expensive watch! But it’s just so sublime! The epitome of traditional watchmaking!
Saw this today
And was absolutely blown away! All the charm of Vacheron’s Traditionelle line with the added sophistication of a perfectly made Tourbillon and a dreamy minute repeater! Is it expensive? Heck yes, but perfection usually is, and this is close to horological...
Agree
Close to perfection. I'd say get it, but I'm also in no position to afford something like that, so easy for me to say.
Get it ! 🤠
I have the lowly Traditionelle 82172. But thus tourbillon repeater is a masterpiece!
Damn enablers!
Haha! Here is a high quality pic from the net to show the gorgeous dial! I am tingling with just the thought that this could be my watch! I am almost certain I will be selling the majority of the collection and just keep a small handful of watches such as...
Oufff….
What a beauty…. VC perfection indeed! It would be the Olymp of most watch collections, and def not seen on many other wrists. Should you go for it? A tough decision, and depends on how you feel about this half of your collection. Personally, I like the th...
That guilloche dial is icing on the cake
Sounds like you'd be left with a lange DS for chrono , and a bunch of other watches to fill the sports category. Do it! But another view would be, are you letting go of anything you'd regret or hard to replace if you have a change of heart? - Kevin
Now THAT is a stunner...
...probably my favorite dial/case from VC. Unfortunately my hearing is pretty terrible these days so the chiming would be lost on me. But what a beauty!
A stunner for sure
But I can’t decide if the very slightly off center dial creates a pleasing tension or is mildly frustrating. Does your lifestyle allow you to wear a delicate and fine piece like this often enough to forgo half of your collection?
That’s a great question
And one I ask myself often when considering such pieces. Yes I do prefer it when watches have decent WR and feel sturdy so get worn often, but have acquired many delicate pieces over the years and found they can be worn quite regularly with no issues. The...
It seems you have already made your decision and I concur with it:)
Get it! You only live once.
Great photo
I am sure you understand why I am so enamored with this piece since you saw it in person, the finishing quality on both the case and movement is unreal!
It’s a stunning combination of art and engineering. I completely understand how you could feel so smitten for this fine piece of high horology.
I suppose it’s all about what pieces you’re considering moving out of your collection. Ultimately it’s about how a watch makes you feel when it’s on your wrist. And only you can answer that. Best of luck!

before I saw your gorgeous collection I was around to say no...
but then I saw the collection where I see at least 2 more tourbillons (Vacheron Overseas and Moser) so obviously this fits well ! I would definitely let got these watches you don't have a good connection with. Consolidating can feel rewarding +1 for me es...
Thanks for your comment
Yes I think consolidating at this point would be more rewarding, at a certain point there are just too many watches to properly enjoy and connect with.
Sorry to post so often
But this is getting quite a bit of thought from me, I am currently researching options just to make sure I am fully aware of what I am getting into. Obviously this is a once in a lifetime purchase, and will require the sacrifice of some fine pieces as wel...
So I’m not supposed to reveal the price...
But since it’s very relevant I am offered 35% off retail
