Lum-Tec B1: Prefer original manual wind or the auto Super Combat?

My SCB2 is my watch-of-all-watches. I LOVE the fact that its winding mechanism is manual (as opposed to auto). Not only is it an accurate and rugged timepiece, it also makes a striking statement when on the wrist. The fact that it has a screw-down crown is an absolute non-issue for me, and I suspect that is the same for all SCB2 owners. The mere act of winding this watch each morning is like watch-Xanax. There is something very soothing and comforting about it, kinda like the purr of a cat. If I had to narrow my watch collection to only one timepiece, the SCB2 would be it.

Where one reads SCB2 in the quote above one can read SCB1 in my case :D
