Well I am leaning towards maybe getting the white-dialed one. But My question was more in the line of what kind of reasoning you do when buying wathces?
 
What are your justifications?
 
I have somewhat strict restrictions about buying what most would consider "luxury items". Regardless of the actuall cost.
So when I am now looking at theses two watches, and a few others with GMT like the Ball Hydro, I find myself asking myself questions like do I really want it, do I need it, is it worth the money and so on.
 
I read some comments here about comparing to the collection and how it would fit in, thats a something I haven't really considered but maybe will now. Are there any other questions you ask before pulling the trigger?
 
And yes Gregger I'm probably somewhat like you in that regard, I buy to keep. I want to get it right the first time. Most of the time that means going over and doing quite alot of research. And rarely it means seeing something for the first time and just knowing that I HAVE to get it! :shock:
 
The enzo emv was like that too me as an example. Another was a leather jacket I saw when I was 16 in a store. It was to big by far but I just knew I had to get it, and so I did. Didn't grow into it until I was about 20. subtlelaugh.gif
 
Paxman I have seen that watch and I really like the idea with the lumed dial. This one is not like that though. Only some lume on the squares by the hour-markings and on the tips of the hands. But it would really ROCK to have it full lume like in your picture! yourock.gif
