Here's my dilemna. I've been promised one the first Heritage46 LE(green bezel/black dial) to hit my area. AD called today and the SOH46 and SOHC are both in. Which to get is my dilemna. Should I get the Chrono instead?? AD has both for me and, no, getting both not really an option right now.

Is there any reason to believe the Chrono will be a better long term value(notice I did not say, "investment").


On the one hand I know the SOH46 will sit better on my wrist. On the other hand this is a LE after all and I wonder if I should go for the SOHC.



What do you think??

I think that it comes down to choice, I see no reason to think that there will be any practical differences.

If I had to pick one, then maybe the chrono would be easier to sell as potentially the more popular, but I really don't think that it will be a meaningful difference.

I guess you have a lotttt of chrono. And i love the to have the sweeping seconds on the dial. And also that dial looks great when it's less busy. Get the SOH!

I would get the SOH. Not a big fan of the chrono. I like them and have them, I just prefer the non-chrono.

Thanks for the input guys. I know it was sort of a silly post, but it was late and my mind was flipping back and forth on this. I'm leaning towards the Chrono, but will wait and see. AD opens in an hour. What will my decision be??

Being completely impartial, I'd go with the SOHC.

The SOH 46. I'm thinking of purchasing the 46 next month myself. But, you should pick the one that make your eyes pop like a kid and a candy store. 

I picked the Chrono - the extra SS(pushers) made it pop especially on the green bezel.

See, "Ooo-la-la Number 12" thread.
