·What else do you own that you can sell? 😗
Do you really mean it?
To make money and buy the BT I sold two women's watches that were too often left in the drawer.
Now I could sell a Aureole skin diver in great condition purchased on OF.

Then there are the logistics of seeing if the seller could wait for you to liquidate other watches you may not love or if you can front the cash and refill the coffers from the sale of other items (which is always a risky proposition if the cash outage could cause hardship).

·I purchased the BT in January in a shop from a trusted dealer after a negotiation.
I really like it and have worn it very little.
A fraction of the purchase was paid for by the trade-in of a women's Cartier I owned.
Now I saw the 2913 on sale from the same seller at a price just above what was asked for my BT.
The dealer described the 2913 watch to me as I reported in the post.
I offered him an exchange at par: I give him back the BT and he gives me the 2913.
He accepted.
I shared my doubts on the Forum to understand whether in your opinion, who certainly have more experience than me, I am doing something stupid or not.
And if in your opinion the ck2913-3 shown in the photos is worth the effort.
Well, that's the story.

··Vintage Omega ConnoisseurSince I don’t own a 2913, I think someone should send me theirs so I can make an educated comparison. 😎

··yoloThe hands of the 2913 does not look good to me, you want to double check with the experts here, because I may be wrong.

I'm of the opinion that the BA and second hands look okay. Besides the size and shape, they seem to be oxidized and aged in conformity, which is a good sign.
To OP's question and setting aside the comparable value, they both wear very differently. The BT does come with bracelet and presumably all correct parts vs. the 2913 with head only and a repainted bezel. Paradoxically most 2913s with original thin bezel intact don't get worn often due to fears of damaging the bezel. I'd choose the 2913.
