Jerome,

To me the second one is nicer but then again all my watches are sport watches. You could say that you needed the chronograph function to time something in your office.

Dan, I like the second one also but in France, in people's minds, medical doctors and dentists are not supposed to earn money.
So I'm looking for a watch which "does not look rich" for most of the people

Jérôme.......This one will make you look dirt poor, and save you $7950.00.

And, as a lover of fine watches, I hate to say it... BUT... probably keep better time...

OK, flame proof underwear on...

Jérôme.......You are very welcome. Always trying to help.

Besides, that $7950 you saved will help put another Lyngdorf and maybe a pair of MC275's on the ESL's.

That's for sure !
I'm still listening and comparing voices with some recordings to see if I really prefer the ESL to the EB1i for some recordings, and that would justify to keep the ESL.
I'm thinking more and more that the EB1i are so good that you don't loose much with them even when you talk about voices only compared to the ESL....
