Both are very unique watches and not seen everyday. I bet the Turn-o-Graph is a beauty and would be my pick just for looks alone.

Dear All,

thanks for your opinions, but i've put my decision to take rolex 6518 with all my consideration as my new collection, i thought 6518 more vintage than 6609 and look like more humble and simply for me, and then i loved smoothed bezel, i've already have like airking 14000m explorer dial 3/6/9 and 6694, indeed i loved oyster date, oyster perpetual and oyster date perpetual

thanks anyway

Best Regards,
Robbie
