Maurice Lacroix Les Classiques Date Ladies

Incoming! (+ dilemma solved)
copied from the GDF:Okay, it's no secret vintage Omega collecting is one of my favorite parts of this hobby. I try to stick to a few specialties in vintage from any brand too: dress watches from the mid 50's to late 60's, and now chronographs from the mid 60's to 70's. I also like to have a little variety from the brands I collect. For instance, one prime example from each series a manufacturer put out (ie: Longines Ultra-Chron, Conquest, Flagship, Diamond Dynasty, Admiral, etc). So, having these parameters and not having an Omega chronograph you would think that the obvious choice would be the Speedmaster caliber 861, right? Late 60's, iconic status....everything I want! Um, unfortunately not. I just don't like the Speedy enough to part with that kind of cash. Don't get me wrong; the history behind them, especially from that era, is amazing and they're possibly the most storied watch known to man but none ever sang to me for all the times I tried one on. Kinda sad, isn't it

What do YOU wear to work?
I love wearing my watches (I feel out of place when I don't have one on). I'm very punctual and therefore am always looking to see what time it is. Well, "What do YOU wear to work?" I am on the go and drive a fork truck most of the day. No, not a banker or doctor. But, I wear what they do....only on the WEEKENDS. On the weekends I wear my Rolex Datejust or my Omega Seamaster but at work I wear my Swiss Army SS. It's quartz and it's comfortable but it makes me look forward to the weekends.

New Navitimer 46mm or Navitimer 01 Ltd Edition
I have been contemplating buying an 01 Limited Edition for a while-main reasons being I have always loved the Navitimer, but more because of the see through case back.Now with a new 46mm Navitimer coming out, I am drawn to the new model because of its larger size ( I have largish hands/wrists) and it has a see through case back as well.Given the 2 options- what would people most prefer? Does the limited edition version command a premium and have a better collectibility factor, or has that just been squashed because of the new 46mm version?
