    I hate asking this question, but which one should I let go? :unsure:

    Both have 354s in them, but the guilloche dial Constellation's case is better and it has the right crown. Dial isn't perfect. The Globemaster's case is more polished down and the dial isn't perfect either, but it's a more uncommon watch. Any opinions? ::confused2::

    Tough one. Despite the unmarked Globemaster being the less common watch, I'd keep the Connie.

    Would sell both and use the proceeds to buy 1 nice Connie. Neither of these watches is a real keeper.

    Actually that's a good idea Mike. I still have my 2887-2 and my Pie-Pan. I think I'll sell off the Guilloche first only because the Globemaster is a little more uncommon, but eventually the Globemaster will go when I find a better example.

    Contrary to popular opinion, I would sell the Constellation first, following your logic that the Globemaster is the more difficult watch to replace.

    You can always sell off the Globie if you find that solid gold version that I know you really want. :rolleyes:

    You'll just need to replace that crown,

    Or you could just get back in you skin, settle down and keep them both. :)

    I actually live only a couple of miles from where they filmed "Flipper", at Ivan Tors Studios in North Miami.

    However, this Flipper seems to be having more fun:

    Back to watches...Keep the Globemaster!

    Yep Kyle, keep the Globemaster IMO

    And set your sights on a sharp 2648 352 RG as a keeper.

    :)

    Cheers
