Re: Should I trade?
In Response To: Should I trade? ()

Hmmm. Tough one for me Jed, as none of them would be on my want list!

I wouldn't rule out a trade outright though, even as a Heuer fan - Regattas are nice and all that, but they are definitely a niche watch. I'm not really keen on the "TV" el Primeros full stop, I don't like the case shape or the registers much. But then I'm not keen on Monacos that much either.

So I'd lean towards the Omega... But Flightmasters always seem to me to be a LOT of case to not very much dial, looking a bit unbalanced to my eyes.

In fact, I'd ignore your short list altogether and say a Speedmaster or round or cushion-cased Zenith. Not much help at all then, but at least I didn't give the default "keep the Heuer" response, right?!
