Opinions please Mark XVII black face

[Ayr]

About to pick up the new Petit Prince rep then got stuck on this. Always had a soft spot for IWC's with the little red triangle on the face.

Thoughts? Which would you go for between the two?

I think I'm doing a relapse about watch addiction guys  the Mark XVIII catch my eyes like hell, this XVII is awsome too.Don't want to hijack the post of Ayr, but, if I'm correct, the XVIII is a 40mm and the XVII a 41mm for gen one, can we confirm this on rep too, cuz there's some contradiction on dealer ads, and, base on the above pic, it look's like the AR is little weak , is it a double side AR?
