Picked up my black dial on the bracelet today. Very happy with my decision, however, they had the white dial and boy that watch is gorgeous.
You really can't go wrong with either of these watches both are stunning |

On the white dial there is too much gap after the dial indices.
The black merges well but the white don’t look great IMHO. |

@maiden
This forum is always good for a laugh. Op, I like the white. I don’t think the legibility will be an issue.

Absolutely beautiful watch. That retro two sub dial configuration is cool. Love one myself...

I think the issue he was referring to is that the snowflake hand could obscure the hands on the subdials, making it difficult to actually read off elapsed times. Wouldnt be a deal breaker for me, but I could see it being an issue for some. OP, love them both, but prefer the black dial on this model.

^ lol perhaps that’s what he meant.
Still, that’s like saying the date function is also non-functional because the date-window is obscured by the minute-hand every hour.... Hahaha.

If they made it a few millimeters smaller in all dimensions I would jump all over it, as would many others. It would be as popular as the BB58.

The Damasko DC86 works well for me. Direct easy-peasy readout-at-a-glance of Hours, Minutes, Seconds, up to 12 hours. But I do very much like the looks of the Tudor offerings. The white dial model is amazing.

I do love the dial/bezel proprtion and I'm happy they slimmed it down a little as the previous iteration was just way too thick for me. That said the snowflake hand and fake rivets still bug me and I just can't un-see the knurling mismatch between the crown and pushers.

I gotta say, Tudor is impressing me lately. As I have posted before I sold most of my Rolex watches as I hated having them just sitting in a box. Felt so wasteful to me personally. Not judging anyone else. It is just how I am.
But man. At the price point and quality that Tudor brings... I feel like I need to collect them all and won't feel nearly as wasteful. |
