I recently acquired a stunning salmon perpetual MB&F. This is among their classic line of watches, with a more traditional case design. I have recently wondered whether I should trade it for an Evo variant of the watch, mainly for its improved durabil...
"I recently acquired a stunning salmon perpetual MB&F.... I have recently wondered whether I should trade it for an Evo variant of the watch". You do make a good point, how long is one recent to the next recent? Am sure your AD can help. The added waterpr...
but if you think the durability and WR are of your major concern then trade it. In my eyes they are stunning enough for me to have both as a subcollection if I were you .

I like the look of the Salmon dial better. However, it comes down to which one you think you will wear more. It sounds like the Evo. I wouldn’t get/keep both. Why? As enthusiasts, we are always looking. So, that allows you to spend money on another watch ...
in green, and fortunate to own the sequential (in orange) too. They are among the handful of my favorite watches of all times. I will tell you why I got the EVO and why yours might be a better choice from some viewpoints: 1. The EVOs look badass, few watc...
