1. 75th rubber
2. White dial black rubber
3. Does rubber fit on bond animated? It did not with nttd
4. Green rubber

This is where I’m at with the line, I’ll know more once they deliver the 75th to me. Dumb OB rule they have to wait for the second one. Trying to get in on the Rolex game. Wish they just stuck to their game and satisfied their customers rather than fully pay and wait.

I was back and forth with the green on bracelet or the white on rubber. I went white on rubber and I love it. Just got it last week hasn’t left my wrist since. It’s a stunner. Dial contrast is amazing and so easy to read

This is a tough choice! Regardless to what you decide, you'll be happy I feel.

For me it would be between the 75th Anniversary Seamaster and the No Time to Die watch. Picking just one of these (for me) is a major challenge. I like that the No Time to Die has a direct Bond connection, unique vintage inspired design, among many other traits.

However, I've always been a fan of the Seamaster line and as something that's fitting into a collection, if faced with this choice I would go for the 75th Anniversary Seamaster given what it represents for both the brand and product line. It's a win-win between the two and hopefully you'll get to compare the watches at an AD prior to purchase.

75th for me...

Of all versions though, I'm taking the 2020 Tokyo Olympics rendition.

NTTD or 75

Tried at AD the NTTD and it is amazing how fits and sits on the wrist, I didn’t had the chance yet to do same with 75

But but I think in the end I would go with the NTTD it is just different

Depends what else is in your collection? Do you need a date or not? Do you prefer the comfort of rubber or the Milanese? Et etc.

To most eyes they all look incredibly samey. Buy what you like.
