Which one would you pick ? (Fortis watches)

Hello guys,

I've always wanted a Fortis Cosmonaut Chronograph in my collection, the one with the lemania 5100.
I have bought 2 of them recently and I'll have to get rid of one of them unfortunately.

The problem is that I don't know which one to pick.

The main differences are on the dial, layouts are a bit different and hands too.
Crowns are also different, on one version they are polished and not signed whereas on the other one they are brushed and signed.
Finally one is 200m wr (the one on bracelet) and the other one 100m.

Also, one version is the exact same reference that went to space, this one :


Here is the other one :


Best regards

the one on the bracelet wins for me.

Always keep the bracelet. Straps can be had anywhere.

Seriously, this is post farming to a level never seen before, making the same comment twice in the same thread....

The traditional argument, mainly from a cost perspective, is to get it on the bracelet and source the strap later.

have fun

I prefer the hands on the first one on the steel bracelet

His 200th or 201st post will almost certainly be an item for sale

Maybe it is the pics but, the second one seems to have better legibility and I like the black date wheels. It makes the day/date seem like part of the dial script.
