1665 Rail dial vs. 16550 double stamps

hi all,

would like to get some advice and suggestions between the two and which one would you pick and why since they both are rare to come by?
1. 1665 Rail dial watch only


2. 16550 Tiffany Spider glossy spider dial watch only/8.4m serial


thanks for your help

Neither, I would keep looking...Tiffany dial and no papers is a waste of money and both are fairly rough examples...

Neither. Rail is better but not by much, I don’t like that spring bar protrusion at 1:00

You meant the spring bar sticks out from the lug right? do you think the lugs are still thick and been polished too much?
