Tough decision mate. Go for the EXPII. You've had the LV, it's a great watch, but you probably would like something different.

My vote is for the revival of the LV ceramic. I also had one and, stupidly, sold it. If you get one back it just might inspire me to do the same.

I'm sure Dino will take your suggestion in great consideration...

As for you my young English friend, I must say I'm very disappointed! You abandon gold again! Don't you ever think about me!?

I think I would go with the polar Exp-II, I personally think it would fit your other jewels and your clothes better. Good luck my friend!

Of the two I think the LV really works for you, however good luck with your decision Dino and I know you will chose the one that suits you best.

Go Exp11 Dino, you've had the LV and sold it which says to me it wasn't the keeper you thought it was. Plus it's always great to have a new watch you've never had before.

If you need trendy wheels, consider a smart car, cheap to buy and 2 seats will reduce the risk of personal injury claims and the premiums will relect this. Top speed is 85mph (if you dare) which is enough to lose your licence
