non chrono mk 6 looks sex.
that's what I'd go for.
I feel non chrono is just so much more stylish.It's a Mk 16
I'm leaning towards that myself - the chrono was bigger(42mm x 14mm) and looked ever so slightly too big. Heavy as fuck too

Have you tried the older 39mm pilot?
If you look hard enough you can get a NOS model for half the price of the current version.
You won't notice the weight of the watch after a while.
Are you still going for the bracelet instead of strap?

I've looked at a few older chrono's on ebay(couple on there now) and various sites I'm not into them as much aesthetically - think the newer, thicker hands look much better than the older model and I like the little red scond hand. The dial is just a lot cleaner than the older model imo
Not as tasty?

Actually, now looking at it again, that's still quite lish...

Nice, one of the 'Spitfires'
What year is that D?

One of the first of that batch then. No doubt got it for a better price than what they are now

I'm swaying....

Yeah it was about £500 less than the current price.
Prices have gone crazy recently.
Shop around.
I am. Got a few irons in the fire. In 2005 when the 3255(mk 16) came out it was £1,900*(still got the catalogue at home). Today it retails @ £2,600 :-(
*KNEW I soulda bought it back then

and of course -- sigh -- my dream watch, the rolex comex. this one from the original 1982 batch of 25 shipped to comex.
-

Fruity. Ah Comex...

iwc EVERYDAY OF THE WEEK.. rOLEX IS WAY TOO OBVIOUS AND COMMON I think. It always screas: 'Daddy bought me this for my graduation'. Not a good look
Is it bad to lust for a watch made by a luggage company?
It ought to be wrong shouldn't it? But I think thye LV watches are pretty damn special. Don't be ashamed, there is no 'right way' to lust after watches...

I love watches, Have some old Omega's 1970's and 1950's pretty oldschool but having had the dials repainted etc they look pretty cool, will try and put some images up soon!
On another note and yes its a little OT but saw some people looking at Jewellery too and I make jewellery for a living, so if your bored take a look at my stuff, its not really your average high street stuff.
