I have a CA away at Breitling atm having the full treatment done.
Grey dial on Pro 2 rubber

I also have a Colt2 auto Silver dial on leather, which I wear everyday

Needs are must, so one has to go.

Just not sure which ?????

A tough call indeed.

The white dial Colt would be more versatile in different situations so would be the logical call, BUT, the CA
is a classic and not easy to find superb watch, -so i would go, illogical and keep the CA.

Hope you make the right call.

Ditch the Colt2. It would probably sell quick since the new colts are very different.

I would keep the CA, a much better watch IMO..

I'd keep the colt. As mentioned, it's more versatile, plus the fact that you wear it so often indicates that you really enjoy owning it. Also, the CA is titanium, which doesn't age well if worn regularly.

Well.... The Colt2 went.
Replaced today by a 44mm black dial Steelfish

That's a perfect move :lingsrock: and one that you'll be grateful of in the future.

It was either black or blue, plumped for the black. Have a pro2 rubber with the lovely ratchet clasp on it's way also :-)

Will be busy brushing it down to match the case ;-)

Great choice. I have the black dial SOSF and it can be three totally different watches. On the bracelet it's really imposing. On the rubber it's really sporty and on a black calf it becomes a much quieter, more sophisticated watch.

I would have chosen the CA also..

This is what to have to look forward to.

My advice. Mix it up a bit with some black calf's. Black leather with black dial looks SUPER IMO!

Enjoy your SF...
