I'm debating getting one and I don't know if i'd want in london tan or havana... It kinda depends on how long a patina takes to develop... London tan is a bit plain for me at first but I've seen some really gorgeous vintage ones in various posts. I think it may look better over the long term than the havana.

Would love to see pics of either after a couple (or many more) years' wear... If you post pics, please state how long you've had it.

Also... For anyone that owns a westminster 1 or 2 or a lombardo, how much does the case weigh empty?
