What are your personal preferences between the two of these magnificent watches and why you chose that particular one!

I chose the LEgende because I loved the havana dial - the combination of havana and TT just sold me. Definitely both great watches though, and I certainly wouldn't be upset if I was forced to add a World because it got a B01 movement. :lol:

Roff, the havana dial is what originally attracted to me the Legende and it's 47mm size as well but I ultimately went with the silver dial Legende, nevertheless I love it. I too am looking into adding a World, it's just something about that World that is calling my name despite the love I have for my Legende!

They're actually quite different pieces despite being from the same family. I went for the Navi World myself as I prefer the hands and the wings logo on the dial, but I was considering adding a TT Legende (black dial) to the collection for quite a while too. Discounted it in the end, but not because it's not a great watch.

Both are beautiful. Roff, the Havana and two tone is a stunning combo. The only thing that would draw to buy a World over the Legende (If i had to chose one over the other) is the ability to swap bracelet for leather. The integrated on the Legende is great, but I love the croc deployant. Who knows maybe someday I'll have both :lingsrock:

You can't go wrong with either. I originally wanted the Navi World, but came across a killer deal on a Legende. Haven't been disappointed at all:

I decided between the World and the Legende, and in the end I went with the Legende. I do like the GMT hand on the world, but liked the look of white dial and black outer dial more. And the wrist presence with the integrated bracelet.

I fell in love with the silver/black Legende the first time I saw it.

It really comes down to your personal preference in terms of dial layout, colour, bracelet, etc. You won't be disappointed with either.

All of the above. Both fantastic pieces. Sadly they are both just too large for my wrist. :(

Were I to get one it would be the World only because I insist on watches that admit of changing bracelet to strap and the Legende has the integrated bracelet.

I am going to get some anabolics and then perhaps some new models will be wearable. :?
