Absolutely not, the Ploprof is so bleepin ugly IMO...but since you asked, I wouldn't even consider that trade.


+1 but that is a personal choice. It may well be true that the Omega will age better but nevertheless I would still keep the Ling.

And Bingo ! The Chronomat B01 LE showed up in the threads yesterday ........ And I got it !!!

I'm confused. Didn't you already have a B01 LE, and were offered a PloProf in trade?

Still don't get it. Why trade your LE if you were to buy another one?

Dont think anyone elses opinion can really beat that statement.

Any chance of some pics of that interesting watch? The Omega that is...

Do not under estimate the Grand Seiko. It's not just a Seiko!.

I'm thinking of a SBGH001 as a a daily replacement for my Colt II Auto, Seiko was my first watch (it was a diver, I still have it).
