Olympia Cremina Badges- Different looks

[ccfore]

I'm cutting my stock of Creminas in half, so I'm deciding which one to keep, and which one to sell. These badges are both different with one I'm familiar with the other I'm not. Also, both machines are in the same color brown. My dilemma is the badge I like the best (red one) is attached to the case with a very small ding on the front right corner. Not really noticeable unless looking for it, but it is missing a little paint also. First, have you ever seen the other badge (gold, flat, painted), and which one is more appealing to you? Does the ding out way the badge? I'm not going to move the plates from cover to cover, I'm just going to put the case I like the best on the newer machine. (only a 2 year difference) Ya, I know, being totally picky about the decision, and beauty is in the eye of the...yada..yada.. like deciding between your two kids, etc. Thanks.

Easy decision. The ding is far more than in the paint, there is damage to the sheet metal which would be very difficult to fix right. Keep the better paint without the ding.
