Help needed
Does anyone have this watch ?
In person does it look good or is it a more yellow color |

The color is more like cream or dirty white. The color yellow never crossed my mind when I see this. Imagine a patinated white dial, but cleaner and much more uniform in its "patina".
This is an actual photo I took from my phone. |

Interesting reference, I’ve always been intrigued and wanted to try a mesh bracelet

It’s an interesting color choice but still fairly legible in daylight.
In the Dark guessing its better. Regarding the mesh strap - they are not a great idea if you spend much time in the sea while snorkeling, etc. Even when the ocean looks clean and clear, it is full of microorganisms and sea spat that is virtually impossible to clean without great effort. Ultimately you’ll get a smelly bracelet. Some seagrit is also bound to get trapped and even boiling, steaming and brushing will not budge it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I had the blue dial version of that one with patina and mesh. Very cool looking and I enjoyed it in the beginning but sold it cause I stopped wearing it. My heart was no longer into it. The lack of a screw down crown and fake patina started to bother me. They have great lume too.

I went with this aged white dial
Got it brand new for 195 USD. I'm gonna put the bracelet from the orange dial onto it or possibly mod the jubilee to fit it |
