904 or 1312?

I have many doubts between two watches that interest me. One is 1312 and the other is 904 (Due Line 42 mm). Can you help me decide?

The 1312 is a beautiful watch at 44mm , then I looked at the 904, there really is a big difference between the two watches. Thats a hard decision to make, sorry I cant help.

Did you get a chance to try them on?

I'm going to see the two watches together in the dealer in my city.
Thanks

Since you are considering a Due, I suppose you are okay with what the line represents. In that case, it comes down to the dial color, size, lug width, the blue hand, lume color and price.

The 1312.
It's the watch I have and pics don't do it justice. I considered the Due as well, and I'm SO thankful I didn't go that route. I tried both the Due 42 and 45 on but ended up getting the 1312 sight unseen as I couldn't find one to try on in person at the time when it was first released.

I looked at the same two watches and ended in the middle with a 1392. The 904 was nice and felt very slim. The 1312 for me was on the opposite end of the spectrum and felt a little big on my wrist. It didn’t look huge and I probably could have pulled it off but I tried on the 1392 and it just seemed right. I have some pics of both the 904 and the 1392. My wrist is about 6.75 inches. I got the leather black the dark brown calf and the rubber. Love that watch id try all on and see what you like best.

I bought the 1312 about a year ago and love it. I like the size, the blue hand and the patina hour markers on the dial really sold me.
