Cartier or Omega?
Looking to trim the collection and free up some funds for an incoming (Sub 124060)…which would you keep and why?
Will either keep the Cartier or Speedmaster…
Current collection is a Speedmaster 3861 (Hesalite), EXP II (black dial) and Cartier ADLC

It all started 48 years ago with a darn Mickey Mouse watch, I was hooked and haven't looked back. It's a fun, albeit expensive hobby and I'm enjoying every second.

Man, if I were in your position and had to give one up, I feel like I’d regret it in 5-10 years. And then I’d risk not getting it back at the same price. So keep both if you can, they’d all have a place in the collection
While I love th Santos, I just can’t wrap my mind around it being black. In regular steel, I’d have a real tough time choosing between these two, but for me it’s the Speedy here.
I have a speedy and don’t (yet) have a Cartier, so keep that in mind. But I just think a Speedy is just so iconic and sort of the Platonic ideal of a chronograph. That particular Cartier is nice but between the two it’s a speedy all day. Now if it was a Cartier Tank that would be harder.
Keep the Speedy. Though Cartier makes great watches the Speedy is and always will be one of the most iconic watches ever. If you get rid of it in a short time you’ll want another.
I had no trouble trading away my Speedy and I don’t miss it. I’d keep the Cartier.
Hmm tough one…for me I would be which one I wear the most, it will most likely the speedy, I love Cartier and even my Santos don’t get too much play

Exactly this.
