Passing for me....the red tachy hand doesn't do it for me. Everything else is a solid win (ok minus the sapphire and pulsometer....But that's nitpicking) though...I just have too many speedmasters and need to be pickier.

Congrats!

Athough very nice, I am partial to the ck2998 with blue and white that came out 2 years ago. Hard for me to see a diffferent variant of the ck2998

Congrats! I like this version of the CK2998 but I think I prefer the one that came out in 2016 just a bit more with the lollipop hand and the lumed tachymetre. Curious if anyone might have both and what their opinion/preference is?

Here you go



I have definitely gone mad. Both are very nice. Feel the same. The black, even with the red second hand, seems more formal. I think both look better on a bracelet but I’m a bracelet guy.

The black definitely gets more attention.

If you want one pick whichever appeals to you best. Can’t go wrong either way.

Beautiful
Got mine 2 days ago
Picked up a 1125 bracelet and a FOIS strap to switch it up
Definitely more dressy
Very shiny
Small and no issues with thickness and dress shirt cuffs
Can't help but smile every time I look down to "check the time"
