Though choice... PAM00026 for me, but I am biased. I am left handed.

TswaneNguni · 5 March 2010, 12:40 AM

249 .. no question.

It would have to be the 249 for its historical significance. While the 26 is a great watch...it is a remake of the A & B series.

You better get a 249 quick...I think the prices are starting to take off again. The 26 on the other hand, the prices are declining.

Trurolexer · 5 March 2010, 02:40 AM

I can get 26k on USD 9,400 and 249 on USD 11,000. How about that? So DAMN confused. Please give me your opinion and advice Tommisol.

GoreX5 · 5 March 2010, 02:49 AM

My vote is 249 and you are getting good prices for both. Get both if you can afford :)

B. Doggy · 5 March 2010, 03:01 AM

I think a 26 between those two. It would round out your collection nicely!!

Assuming they are both in mint condition and are complete with all boxes and papers...I would say both are priced at or near their current market value. I just think in the long run, the 249 will be the far better buy...it is so unique and historical...it is near impossible to copy that same dial design in another watch case. Since it a SE model, there will not be another watch in the future with the same look...different than the 26L ..which is already a remake. These are just my opinions.

Good luck on your decision.

TR - that's a hell of a price, I say go with the 26k still - that Cali dial just looks 'confused'

jcatral14 · 5 March 2010, 09:51 AM

232 + 190 + 249 = HAT TRICK!!!!!!
249 without a doubt

HL65 · 5 March 2010, 10:29 AM

26

mike · 5 March 2010, 10:29 AM

I'm in the 249 camp as well TR.

forza1976 · 5 March 2010, 12:11 PM

249 all the way :)

brainbizz · 5 March 2010, 02:02 PM

Own both would not hesitate on the 249. It is that special.

Trurolexer · 5 March 2010, 03:14 PM

Thanks for the voted & opinion Guys!!! Let see what happen next.

limenko · 5 March 2010, 06:28 PM

What Tommy said Heru, go for the 249.

Trurolexer · 5 March 2010, 11:15 PM

More confused...

gmtobsessed · 5 March 2010, 11:41 PM

Bro, go slightly older

Maybe a 004?

mfer · 6 March 2010, 01:13 AM

Cali all the way.

Trurolexer · 6 March 2010, 01:13 AM

My budget is aroung 190k-11k top. No way to buy a watch more than that range, Bro.

ocwatching · 6 March 2010, 02:56 AM

Heru..complet the RAD trilogy...get the 249

Trurolexer · 6 March 2010, 03:07 PM

As a Lum chap I voted 26, but the 249 is the more special of the two imho.

Hope that helped!

Cheers
