Girard Perregaux

This or That or All or None ...

 

For a couple of weeks I'm facing a dilemma that I would like some advise.

I have in my possession two GP watches that I need to decide if I keep and what I should keep.

Here is the dilemma (all watches are pre-owned but in fair conditions -- full set):

1) A GP WW.TC Ti, limited edition (I could not care less about this)

Of course, my "field assistant" digs this one:

2) The second is a R&D 01 that is also limited to 18 something (again, I don't care)

Here is the dilemma: I like the two watches. The WW.TC is very cool and helps me to track the multiple time zones that I do business.

The R&D is also very cool. I love the center minute counter.

The fact that is a massive SS chunk is not a problem because it "dresses" great.

I know that the watches aren't new (the WW.TC still has "Caracas" on the dial -- newer got Puerto Rico since Venezuela changed his TZ).

I love GP sport watches because they are very well designed and they are, at least here, very rare and, that is the best part, I have a great image of GP as a company (under the radar, cool and elegant).

There are cons that are shared by the two watches.

Originally they are equipped with rubber bracelets that requires to be cut (I believe, but I don't plan to wear rubber) for proper adjustment and, the lug holes are so close from the case that is painful to swap a leather (Yes, I am a leather person) strap.

Let's hear from the team: This, that, all or none?

Thanks for seeing,

Nilo
