tframo Posted March 23, 2015 Report Posted March 23, 2015 Guys. I just picked these up on m2m The all black has a Swiss heart. Black with white accent has Asian heart Since I have a lot of trouble making decisions, I'll ask all of you which one do you like better? I will be sending it off to vac for relume and putting a gen pro 2 bracelet on the keeper (if white is keeper a Swiss movement installed as well) Thanks for your comments and opinons.
sgtguk Posted March 23, 2015 Report Posted March 23, 2015 Love these, just picked one up myself on the other board in yellow depends entirely on your collection but for me I have plenty black dials in there already so would be white and swiss I fancied a gen bracelet for it but something else caught my eye and that was the Gen black and Yellow leather strap........stunning and ordered today too missus may be slapping me this week! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181678308408?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
tframo Posted March 23, 2015 Author Report Posted March 23, 2015 I'm leaning toward the white as well
jpz5142 Posted March 24, 2015 Report Posted March 24, 2015 I'd go with the black. I used to think that I liked divers in colors other than black, but I kept flipping them in favor of black divers. Now that my collection is mostly black divers it is a lot more stable. But apparently I am not one for change...
kernow Posted March 24, 2015 Report Posted March 24, 2015 I have both. The White makes the dial seem smaller and less well balanced. Whist is nice to have a change from a 'boring' all black, my white only comes out occasionally. In fact my black is on a Pro II bracelet and is one of my most worn watches.
fitmic Posted March 24, 2015 Report Posted March 24, 2015 Once you go black, there's no turning back.
Ayr Posted March 24, 2015 Report Posted March 24, 2015 Hard call, both look class. White is more of an eye-catcher, sportier, perhaps more attractive, though I'd go black as my current mood is to keep things toned down.
tframo Posted March 24, 2015 Author Report Posted March 24, 2015 Now I'm leaning toward the black. All good points plus I wouldn't need to pay for movement upgradeI have both. The White makes the dial seem smaller and less well balanced. Whist is nice to have a change from a 'boring' all black, my white only comes out occasionally. In fact my black is on a Pro II bracelet and is one of my most worn watches. Can you post some pics of your all black on the pro 2?
kernow Posted March 24, 2015 Report Posted March 24, 2015 The new only photo I have of it - and I can't take another at the moment as I'm at work.
kernow Posted March 24, 2015 Report Posted March 24, 2015 Strangely enough, I'm wearing my yellow today!
tframo Posted March 24, 2015 Author Report Posted March 24, 2015 Looking good! Thanks for the pics. Sourcing a pro2 to fit this has been tougher than I thought... Any suggestions?
sgtguk Posted March 24, 2015 Report Posted March 24, 2015 Hey kernow, that Yellow looks bloody good mate Can't wait for mine to arrive now, strap shipped today ! Black looks ace with the bracelet
kernow Posted March 24, 2015 Report Posted March 24, 2015 Thanks buddy. Thet are great watches. I seem to have a soft spot for them as I have one of each colour! I'm sure you'll love yours when it arrives.
tframo Posted March 24, 2015 Author Report Posted March 24, 2015 I've decided to keep the black one. Picked up a gen pro 2 on chrono24 and just put it on this Nato I had lying around. I think the problem I had before was that I do not like rubber straps and it was turning me off to the e watch. White will be in m2m soon..
tframo Posted March 25, 2015 Author Report Posted March 25, 2015 Good call. Thanks kern. I think so too. White is up for sale on m2m already. Hope it goes quick.
jpz5142 Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 Thanks kern. I think so too. White is up for sale on m2m already. Hope it goes quick. Well now I'm wishing that you had kept the white and sold the black so I could buy it from you...
Nightwatch Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 This Abyss - in yellow, black or white is always a great choice. Easy to go with the black when it has the best movement, for me the white is equally stunning:)
