I had come to the same conclusion about my 5711, it was unwearable and as much as I liked it (still do) my brain was telling me do something. It was a combination of it being unwearable and the crazy secondary market prices that led me to dump it. No regrets.

All that said, for me your thought of trading for a CB, while an upgrade in my opinion in some ways, is not something I’d do. At the prices of both of these watches there are a lot more interesting watches to buy. I say that as a long time Journe owner, multiple watches including a CB I’ve owned and loved for more than a decade.

The other thing I would add, despite the peaks the CB hit in the secondary market it never crossed my mind to sell it.
