Hello Folks,

I have to put one on sale, but can't decide which one. Both discontinued and classic models. So here I ask for your help and opinions......................
Which one should I hold on to?

#1. "Grate white".

#2. "Oysterquartz"

Thank you.

IMO, the oyster quartz is a much more interesting piece to a serious collector. That said these are two very different watches, and your remaining collection might heavily influence the decision. For example if you have no other GMT watches, I would keep the omega.

Dr. Robert · 15 October 2012, 03:32 AM

Keep the Rolex, sell the Omega.

superdog · 15 October 2012, 01:56 AM

Like the quartz better personally. But that would make sense here.

Andrés G · 15 October 2012, 01:58 AM

Keep the Oysterquartz.

Nate · 15 October 2012, 02:03 AM

Rolex does not make quartz anymore. It is a highly accurate timekeeper and relatively rare piece. The Omega Great White is nice too, but Omega still makes other GMT's. Keep the Oysterquartz.

Absolutely no question. Keep the OQ.

HL65 · 15 October 2012, 02:08 AM

Agree--keep the OQ!

nick c · 15 October 2012, 02:09 AM

keep the Rolex

colpol · 15 October 2012, 02:15 AM

Without a doubt the rolex

Never been a bit fan of the white seamaster

Rags · 15 October 2012, 02:31 AM

Keep the Oysterquartz it's a collectors item.

Chewbacca · 15 October 2012, 02:31 AM

keep the rarer rolex.

MrLee · 15 October 2012, 02:32 AM

Defo the omegas got to go, oysterquartz is awesome

Sam Philip · 15 October 2012, 02:41 AM

Keep the Rolex

Kingair · 15 October 2012, 02:43 AM

Sell the Omega !

Arpinum · 15 October 2012, 02:45 AM

No contest - keep the OQ.

lhanddds · 15 October 2012, 02:50 AM

You should be getting the idea now, keep the Rolex

77T · 15 October 2012, 02:53 AM

You already have a 1675 GMT, so the Great White is a bit redundant functionally.
I'd let it go...

moviefreak · 15 October 2012, 03:02 AM

sell the one that is easier to buy back at some point...

Solo118 · 15 October 2012, 03:03 AM

I too like the Quartz better. Not a huge fan of the white face SMP

~dadam02~ · 15 October 2012, 03:13 AM

Sold my OQ last month and regret it immensely, a really really lovely watch. You got to keep it imo.

sandollars · 15 October 2012, 03:11 AM

Sell ME your Omega! I'm not a purist! :)

Lew Archer · 15 October 2012, 03:19 AM

For me, the question boils down to a financial one. You say you must sell one---so sell the one which will translate into fundsreturn sufficient to address whatever financial issue has necessitated sale in the first place.

katana · 15 October 2012, 03:30 AM

Keep Rolex.

sea-dweller · 15 October 2012, 03:37 AM

Keep the Rolex!

Roller07 · 15 October 2012, 03:45 AM

keep the Rolex

impalass · 15 October 2012, 04:09 AM

Nothing wrong with the Great White, but the Oyster Quartz is far more interesting imo.

handsfull · 15 October 2012, 04:22 AM

Get rid of the Oyster Quartz....YUCK! PM me for payment details.

patrike · 15 October 2012, 05:06 AM
