Ebel 1911 discovery buying advice

[capusto]

Hi,

Im a newbie without any rep yet. I want to order my first one, a white (panda) Ebel 1911 discovery chrono.

As i plan on using it daily, i dont mind spending extra for the best rep, but i dont know which version to choose: Eurotimez or PTime.

The new eurotimez one (website) seems to be different than this descprition (no double sided AR coating mentionned, +3 usd than rwg review).

There is some differences like the color of chrono needles and double/ or not AR coating...

Im lost a little bit, any advice is welcome.

Thanks!

What you are seeing is lighting differences in these two sets of photos.

The 1911 has very good AR for a rep. Although I have no doubt Chief's might be better, I don't see the need in sending it off. I bought mine from Eurotimez and posted a pic on the other thread where you asked the same question. I think By-Tor got his from Eurotimez as well, so his review pics should give you a good idea as they are always much better than mine ...

I have seen people on the other 1911 threads that have bought from PT who were equally happy with their purchases too. Either dealer will likely get you the same watch, as I'm not aware of different versions on this rep, so pick your dealer and pull the trigger .... it's a great rep, so you won't regret it.
