Hi guys,
A few days ago I posted about some issues with a brand new Transocean Chronograph Unitime I bought. Long story short, they are giving me a brand new one.
Question: should I keep the new Unitime or. ....sell it and get a Chronospace Automatic aaaaand an Avenger Seawolf?????

Why did you pick the Transocean before? Why are you considering the Chronospace and Avenger now? If I were in your shoes, sell one and buy two :)

I picked the Unitime because I travel frequently and I wanted a world time watch. I think maybe I am just leary of the Unitime now because of the negative experience I had with the first one. Thanks for input kromdom, duly noted.

Personally I'd keep the Unitime, but I've never understood the reasoning behind putting a decision like this to a public vote. It's your watch, your money. Why let someone else make that decision for you?

Chances are the new one will be fine. If you really wanted the Chronospace and Seawolf you'd have bought those first time around.

Completely agree. You're the only one who has to wear them!

Bingo! You get it, you pay for it, you wear it ;-)

I was just looking for opinions on the watches, I would not decide what to do based on everyone is saying. I agree and I will ultimately make the decision about what to do. Like I said I just wanted some feedback on the watches, so maybe my opening post was a little misleading. Apologies.

I like the idea of two for the price if one.

I know me too!! I decided to keep the Unitime for a while though once I get the new one, only of course if the new one isn't having issues. If the new one is making funny noises too then I will have to cross that bridge when I get to it. For now though like I said I will keep the Unitime and enjoy it for a while.....then I may sell it and get the two! !

I think it's perfectly fine to seek advice on a forum for watches. What else are we here for? That said, I have no opinion on your decision, except either way it's a nice position to be in.

I personally would rather have the two pieces you mentioned over the Unitime, that is if my wrist could handle the sizes. Good luck with your decision!

Okay that makes more sense. Your original post came across as if you were asking us if you should keep the Unitime or buy the other two. Rather than just asking for opinions on the three pieces.

Let us know what you decide.
