Jaeger-LeCoultre REVERSO GRANDE TAILLE - LATITUDE

The Who Makes a Better Movt. article
John, loved the article on your Rolex Reference page about who makes the better movement between the Rolex 3135 and Omega 1120 movements. My first good watch, a Bond SMP 2531.80 did need to be overhauled twice in 4 years before it finally stayed locked in COSC standards but it is a great piece that I'm quite proud to own. Luckily my Sub has needed nothing in the way of adjustments in almost two years. I've not been interested in the least for any Co-Axial escapement Omega watches because I've read too many reports of them not quite working as advertised and because for zero appreciable reasons the Omega watches that have the Co-Ax cost almost twice now what I paid for my SMP. Omega needs to dump the tarted up escapement contraption and get back to just making great reasonably priced world class timepieces and leave the gimmicks to less prestigious brands.:cool:

Thoughts on a 112 trade for a 320 plus cash?
Hi Fellow Enthusiasts,Want to get some feedback. Recent opportunity to trade up for an 320. Would you miss having the simplicity of the 112? Any thoughts on whether the 112 would appreciate now that it's stopped production?Thanks.
