Thanks for the reply ...

 

Perhaps I should clarify that when I say “investment” I do not mean it literally but that the price of these watches is not a small amount to me.

 

As you have pointed out, both are very different watches but at a similar pricing, which is what I can afford at this point in time.

 

It would therefore be most helpful if I could some views on the value of these two watches, in terms of movement, material used, finishing and branding.  Aesthetic-wise, both are beautiful watches, which I would have gladly acquire both if I have the resources.

 

As mentioned, I am making this purchase with the intention of leaving a piece of valuable procession for my son.

 

I would greatly appreciate more views on which would be a more worthwhile piece to get as I would probably not be able to make another major acquisition for quite some time after this.

 

Cheers!

If you are looking for an investment to appreciate, take the Patek. If you are looking for a fine watch, exquisitely finished, that looks fantastic, you can take either. I chose this.... and certainly have never regretted it. I have had many compliments f...
