Thoughts on 323 vs 190?
Hi Everyone - Long time lurker looking for input on which Rad to acquire to compliment my 312.
Any thoughts and preferences here among the community on pros/cons of the 323 vs the 190, which are my two leading contenders? Would love input and any 323 pics, especially wrist shots and any side by sides with 45mm Rads. Either the 45mm or 47mm would work well for me. One tends to hear much more about the 190 as a classic with the JLC movement and gold hands but not so much about the 323. Love the 10 day in house movement, GMT, sandwich dial, subtle power reserve of the 323 and the silver hands would be fine. Thoughts? Cheers!

Dude. 190. No question. Now if you play around with some numbers on your choices. 232. Otherwise 190 is DA BOMB!

190 for sure.... 232 also a better option.

Like them both. That will be hard to choose.
If the 323 have the gold hands then I will pick the 323.....:)

Of the two I prefer the 190 - just too busy on the 323. You may also consider the 210 or 232 Rads...both are favorites of mine.

I never owned 190 and bought my 323 about 5 months ago. I like it and its actually getting a lot of wrist time compare to other watches that I have but that might be due more to the strap than a watch itself.
