Thank you both for taking the time to post your thoughts and recommendations. Campagnolo peaks my curiosity, but I guess it is "the cool" of an italian company (producing in romania) that does this to me - similar to the endless apple/mac vs pc argument.
My head says I should stay with the 105 - so I'll try that route.Returning to the crank topic: I also thought about a DuraAce 7400 crankset, but looking at the readily available new options Sugino looks alright. I already have a Sugino crank on my Pelago Stavanger running nicely with a 105, BUT there is a slight (but noticable) wobble in the large chainring... not sure if that speaks for the quality.

Wouldn't say it speaks to the quality of most sugino parts. I've ridden mostly their lower end/older stuff and it performs like a champ. Reason I might go with shimano instead is the hidden bolt on sugino cranks is a little fiddly, but I doubt you'll be changing rings out often enough for it to be a big deal.

yeah haha 2004 chorus would likely work but deserves to be with other campy parts. if you've got one lying around why not get veloce to go with? If you're set on shimano, the old 105 and 600 cranks are similar aesthetically to chorus. sugino xd cranks would look nice as well!
