Which Nautilus is more true to gen?

Can y'all help me. I have been staring at these two for an hour.

I know the movements are different. But are either of these two cosmetic wise closer to the Gen watch??? They both look like such different shades of blue....I'm not sure what to do.

Hi, the swiss SW200 for longtime was considered the best with the best movement. The price was a dealbraker for me. There is a hole on the first link the gen has not.

The cheaper one is a lot cheaper, a newer release and I really liked the superluminova (the other one has not), specs, mainly the thickness at 9,5mm are good. Best part is the issue with the hole on the first link was corrected (more gen-like - but hands are wrong).

 

The hands or the second hand on the Myota are wrong (don´t quote me on it, pls. research a bit). Generally these dials reflect sunlight and create beautiful and different shades and reflections continuously. Other members have more expertise on the Nautilus and if the shades of blue are ok.

Beautiful. But I gotta say that date wheel looks really bad and those hands are way too thin.

But I do like that dial...decisions decisions. Lol.

I Have to agree with CC, go for one of the older closed case back ones, I'm sure Andrew still has them listed on his site as the 'MBW' versions. snip the seconds hand, unless you can get the pinion capped, possibly re lume it with a creamer colour and you have a very nice example which is unlikely to be called out.

The big tell tale is the date window position and the dots printed next to it.
