New transocean chrono?

I'm thinking of selling my Grand Seiko SBGE001 to pick up the new transocean chrono. Do we have any owners out here?

Does it wear consistent with it's size? How is the strap? It looks quite thick in the pictures so I wonder about it's flexibility and comfort.

How is the resale value on these things? I don't see many second hand which leads me to wonder whether they are being sold or if people just love them so much they aren't on the market.

I have one and have to say its the best watch I have owned.
Its really comfortable, does not wear big. Really nice. Purchase it with the mesh..

I haven't seen many used for sale. I purchased mine and it was the only one I've seen for month.... Sold away all my other and keeping this....

So go for it

Thanks. What dial combination did you go with? Really like the Panda style.

Beautiful watch, so simplistic a design, I think that is why is screams at me each time I see it. I do not need another chrono but boy do I love the look on this one.
