Tough choice. Both great pieces. I'd probably let go of the 9BL only because I'm not a big pvd fan.

Good luck!

Keep the 9BL, it will be much more appreciated in the future, moreover I like much more than 190

The 190 is a keeper, more expensive to service, but has a superior movement.
I'm heavily biased, being a Radiomir owner.
cheers

keep the 190 for sure. hardore paneristis will appreciate the 9BL and who knows the value may hold as well or even better, but, i just think the 190 is the better watch (if not one of the best PAMs).

Brutal choice....190 is the keeper by a hair. Close one. What is sale for, or what is incoming piece?
