New model or old model steel Skydweller?

I’m about ready to purchase a steel Skydweller and wonder how much difference it makes, if any, between the older reference (326934) or the newer model (336934).

I tend to sell/trade a watch after a few years and move on to another one. So, my question here is mostly about potential future resale. The older model is currently priced less on the grey market, but not by much. It varies from dealer to dealer, but roughly a couple grand.

I’m not concerned about the price difference and would lean to the newer model but the older model is more readily available in all the different configurations.

I’d appreciate some opinions. Thanks.

Think the new reference just had a change of escapement to the latest version. Other than that, it’s all the same.

You’d Probably save a bunch and also lose less $ if you pick up the old reference.

The resale value of the new reference is going to be better, at least in the near future. This is by virtue of its recency.
