Hi there, Friends! Thank you for your advice! I'm about 90% set on pulling the trigger on this. I think I'm going to go with the LE Railmaster! There is still availability and the OB will let me change my mind if I get my hands on it and hate it. My thinking on this one is that it's a one-off and it really does look like the original, but has the newest, latest movement. I feel like there's a decent chance it will hold its value once they're all sold out. My thought would be to wear this every day and since I'm in business casual at work, this will probably work best.
I still love that Globemaster and that will be on my list for a couple years from now, either new or gently used! I love that watch because it reminds me of the vintage Constellations I already have and I do really like having a date indicator. The blue face adds a certain freshness to it.
Thanks again for your thoughtful, considered counsel. It's helped me clarify my thinking! The '57 Speedie also still has availability (good sign? Bad sign?) and I bet that one will hold or appreciate...I just can't see myself wearing it. Either of these two guys I will love, it's just a matter of when!
