    This is my current Omega (near mint and full kit), and I am considering a Speedmaster for wearability. I like the legibility of the Torino and the fact that it has a white dial.
    Any advice here gentlemen as far as trading up or down is concerned, cash back demands etc?
    Any other issues I am unaware of?

    The commemorative Apollo versions have some gravitas with collectors, but I'm not so sure about Olympic commemoratives. If you're getting it to wear it and because you just like it, great. If you're looking for collectibility I don't think you'll get it from a Torino.
