Which of these two Presage do you prefer, and why?
The Presage Urushi Chronograph, and the Presage Blue Enamel. You have a choice of black lacquer or blue enamel; silver Arabic numerals or white Roman numerals; date at 4:30 or date at 3; etc. etc.
Similar crowns, similar cases, similar straps and deployant buckles.
Both are relatively thick; both are mechanical movements, automatic winding, moderate claimed accuracy and autonomy
Retail price for the pair was about $3500 US (they were not sold in pairs; both are likely sold out)
The movements are cleanly and mechanically finished - nothing exotic.
So? Your choices are Neither, One or the Other, or Both.

For me. They were sold out almost immediately. Where else can You get an in-house chronograph that’s column-wheel-based and has a vertical clutch transmission system. All for under $3000 usd.
Both for me and I'm
fortunate to have both,LOL! Couldn't resist them both---each a gem in their own right and good value to boot best henry ...
The blue enamel, easily.
That seems to be shaping up as quite the community watch here.
Both!
Hi Both! Mainly as I'm greedy But also the blue enamel dial is stunning & changes so much depending on lighting conditions. Also Chronograph has great dial - would be first chronograph too. Bonus in the in house movement too. Cheers JML
In this case the SPB069 just edges ahead for me...
Has to do with it sitting on my wrist better. But both are truly intriguing pieces!
