Which of the two is going to be a better long termer, or have more flip value? Both feature newish in house movements.

The Breitling doesn't excite me, so I'd opt for the PloProf on design alone. I'd also say it is the more desirable piece of the 2 due to the original PloProf's history. However as to which one holds their value the best, I wouldn't like to say ... There's always going to be someone after a B01 or PloProf though smile

Same here. The B'ling does nothing for me.

I am sure a few people on here and TZ have mentioned some great deals on the PloProf recently

I've just bought a PloProf in the January sales. It is a fabulous watch, build quality is excellent, and the mesh bracelet and ratcheting clasp are things of wonder. Surprisingly, it doesn't wear as big as you think it might 12 o'clock to 6 o'clock anyway. It is however incredibly tall, and it weighs a friggin' ton. It's also going to be prone to getting marked up (because of the height and the heft).

I've said this before, but I'll wear mine to the football - if things kick off I'll be able to use it as a knuckleduster!

I did indeed pick up the ploprof, but am not sure how much I like it's size. What I ideally want to do if keep flipping up watches to a slightly higher rrp one that someone wants to change. There must be a magic route to AP for me smile

I thought although I don't like the breitling I could sell that on for more than the ploprof in a while after straight swapping with it. Then use the increased funds etc to find the next bargain to flip up.
