I am looking for some advice on my 2446c and 11630 GMT, please will you let me know what you think:
1. 2446c. I am sending it off for a service, what do you think about the T insert? I prefer the MH one but I already have a 2446c and a 7763 with MH inserts. If it was your watch would you try to find an MH insert or would you keep it as it is?
I like the 7763 as it is with the MH insert and leather strap so won't swap the two inserts over. I also think that the three watches are suitably different that I will continue to wear them in rotation
One of the reasons I have thought about the swap is from seeing this still from The Exorcist. The watch looks more balanced with the symmetrical insert:
2. 11630 GMT. I like it on the bracelet but should I try to find a bracelet for it? I have a GF bracelet currently on an 1163, is it easy (and relatively affordable) to find end pieces to fit the 11630? Or should this watch be on the Oyster-style bracelet?
Going back to the T and MH inserts, what was the difference, does one measure speed and the other one distance?
All help gratefully received.
Thanks,
Simon
