Ive got the urge to own either an emergency digital on pro2 titanium strap or a mission .....
But in order to do this I will need to sell my blue faced breitling Steelfish xplus and my recently fully serviced superquartz B1....
What do you think?
Also emergency digital or mission?
I love the 2 breitlings I've got at the min but I've really got this urge....... :twisted:
Is the orbiter emergency valued more or not?
Thanks

Tough call! However, I could not counsel you to sell that Steelfish with the blue dial. That combo is fantastic and I love the SO.

I usually don't respond to personal preference posts like this one, but, in this case for me, i would keep the blue SF and B1. Two great all around pieces, a superquartz and auto for variety.

Sometimes one must fight the URGE, although I'm not very successful at it :) .

Good luck with your decision!

Have you tried the Mission on? It's a behemoth (in thickness) & will not sit still on your wrist unless you wear the strap tight! I LOVED mine when I had it exactly BECAUSE it has such a massive wrist presence. But you should definitely try it on before making a decision.

Btw between the two Es, I'll chose the Mission just for the (much) better WR.

Keep them both. Sell somehting else to fund the urge. :D

Go on, you know you want to have them all. So, look round for something else to say good bye to. :wink:

Coming from an emergency owner, i'd keep the two existing and save.

Tough call!

I love my emergency, I'm even wearing it today at work (just incase anything happens).

Although when I sold my superocean many years ago, I missed it, so much so that I've purchased another one.

Not a massive fan of either the B1 or B2, so I'd get rid of that and keep the superocean, but its all personal preference.
