Hi,
I would really like members opinions on two options I have through ADs, and prices of these two timepieces are identical. I'm having a hard time choosing.
The first is H Moser & Cie Prepetual Calendar in Blue Fume Dial and Leather Strap. The second is Vacheron Constantin Historique 1921, the 36mm dial version as it fits me better lug to lug. I recognize that the Moser is a complication movement and all, yet they're the same price range as the Moser piece I got hands on is heavily discounted by the AD since they're shifting their business strategy. I was really into buying it, some video reviews on Youtbue put me off though regarding the finishing of some aspects of Moser, like in the hands and movements, upon close inspection. Maybe nothing visible easily, but at least the piece reviewed was able to show it and I agree that at this price range I expect nothing but immaculate finishing. On the other hand, I saw the VC 1921 last weekend in the white gold and brown leather strap and it looked stunning.
Which one you would put your money on and why?
(photos of the models I'm referring to are attached. Exactly the same references. I think the moser came up with a newer reference where the dial has no "Swiss Made" written and the brand name is quite hidden, so this reference might be two years old)
