Opinions on Tudor 76213 Gold linen dial diamond vs gold stick indicies

Hey everyone, I saw some posts of the Tudor 76213 on the forum and fell in love.

I am debating on the 76213 with the gold linen dial but cannot decide between the diamond dial and the gold stick indicies.

What do you guys think? This watch is to go along with my 114060 and various Seikos I have collected over the years.

I will likely be retiring my Seiko SBDX017 if I get this watch, I need to clear up space in my watchbox and I don't wear it anymore after I got my Sub.

Tough call they both look good, depends if you want that Xtra little flash?? I like the clean classy stick dial myself, really lets that linen pop!

I prefer the batons. The diamond dial is too busy for me.

I'm going to be contrarian and say diamonds. Sticks don't work for me on any dress watch.... or really any watch I guess. The diamonds are small enough as to not be too blingy and add a nice touch.

I’m almost never a diamonds guy, but for this particular showdown, I actually prefer them. The gold batons blend in to much with the cool textured background.

Both good choices (love this watch - I went for the black dial 76213). My choice would be no diamonds because there is plenty of bling with the fluted bezel and bracelet but it's a great look either way.

Thanks Goose and everyone else on the thread. Your post on the black dial is what inspired me to look closer at this model.

I am still torn. I love the contrast that the diamonds bring but just not sure if it fits with my style. Then again I never thought I would ever look at a gold watch if you asked me a year ago!

No problem - glad I managed to convey something of how good this watch is.

I know what you mean about not considering gold - I was the same a while ago but the gold kind of draws you in... I am still drawn to the champagne dial 76213 with roman numerals but love this linen dial too. There are too many watches!
