So after I got my new Skagen watch, I came to a realization, WTF did I get a second watch. I already have a nice one and wanted to get an everyday watch, but why not just enjoy my nice watch and wear it everyday. Oh well, I didn't think this through. I'm an idiot.
Unfortunately since its been re-sized, I can't return it, so I decided I will sell one of them.
The two watches are the following;
Tissot PRC 200 - http://shop.tissot.ch/mm5/grap...00000001/T17158652.jpg
Pros: Sapphire Crystal resists scratches and breaks much better, bendable steel links on the band, real chrono, classic look
Cons: Heavy and large, so it can get in the way while doing tasks.
Retail: $450 (Paid $300) - About 1.5 years old
Skagen 596XLTXM - http://www.rakuten.ne.jp/gold/.../wogn/WOGN076ZZZ01.jpg
Pros: Very light & thin, modern look, doesn't get in the way as much due to its size
Cons: Mineral Crystal breaks and scratches easier, Titanium scratches easier, links don't bend so its stiffer and less comfortable.
Retail: $195 (Paid $113) - Still brand new except for the re-sizing
Here is a combined pic to see them in the same shot; Picture
I know I know, I shouldn't have bought it in the first place, but I'm sure we all get that way sometimes. Get fixated on something then regret it right after
I welcome your suggestions and comments. I know some of you will say neither, but I like them both and already own them both, not gonna go out and get a third
