That's the direction I'm leaning towards as well. However, every time I put on the SA, I want to take it..!

The Rolex will be much more comfortable.
Judging by your wrist shots, the SA looks huge on your wrist.

What size is your wrist? Looks to me like its about 7" :?

LOL... I have what I call; "Little girl wrists." I can wrap my hand around my wrist and overlap my thumb and middle finger (and my fingers are NOT than long much to the dismay of my ladies...).

Personally, I'd take neither unless you're looking to get them stolen. I don't wear any jewelery when I'm in foreign countries, except for Europe. If I had to choose, I'd take the Rolex because I'd be less upset if it got jacked.

I guess it depends where you're going. SA if you want people to notice your watch. Sub if you don't.

This is my vacation watch. Tough as old boots and well under £100 so it doesn't matter if it gets lost/stolen/damaged.

:yeahthat don't get me wrong I love the super avenger, but it does draw a lot of attention. Some of it may be the unwanted kind. Have a great holiday with either one you decide to take.

I usually wear my Chrono Avenger M1 on vacation. Water ready, very comfy, changes timezone easily, and I don't have to worry about keeping it wound.
