Thanks for your reply. From collector's point my preference is the Lecoultre.
Both watches are great to have and I love the Omega dial much more.
The LeCoultre with val. 72 as this one is not easily found. As to the bezel I like it, it makes it really unique.

: I would choose the Omega, primarily because of the LeCoultre's
: bezel. I just wouldn't wear that watch as often as I would wear
: the Omega. The quality of movements is comparable, the condition
: of the watches is comparable and I imagine the age of the
: watches is comparable.

: I suspect the LeCoulte is more valuable, and if I were interested
: in flipping the watch, I might be tempted to take it . . . but
: as I said, I would wear the Omega more often as it suits me
: better, and I buy watches to wear.
