    Cannot Decide which Vintage to buy... Help!

    I know everyone has different taste but just wanted to get some opinions.

    I already own a BR03-92 SS. I want to get carbon this time and have been loving the new 126s

    is there a specific reason for that? I like the heritage but i feel like the other one looks sharper as it is white markings on black.

    If you feel that way, then.........................there's your answer. No need to ask. It's your money and you have to spend it on what tickles YOUR fancy.
    But since you asked, I think that the Heritage adds a little more vintage to the watch. Also gives it a little more versatility, not too dressy. AND you get the Heritage strap which IMHO is a nice plus. Just my 2 cents

    I'm having the same dilemma! I am going to the airport this weekend so have opp to pick up duty free; cannot decide between black vintage or officer-

    Officer; love the enhanced finishing on the dial but not sure on the lack of lume and the more elegant hands; I love the croc strap and case back, but aren't pilots watches meant to have anti magnetic casing? Overall this is a more classy watch but has lost some principles of a pilots model and I am undecided with choosing which one still!

    Any owners or in-depth reviews will be much appreciated as I'm struggling to find reviews on the web in general...

    Thanks

    The Heritage! If I were going to buy a 126, I'd be deciding between the Heritage and Original Beige.
