So which flavour do you like...  (if you missed it, the original press release it was HERE...)

Gold...



Platinum... (with a blue/purple dial)




Or super light Titanium...




Personally... I love the case of the titanium version as it is superlight (like the old sports line), however I am not a fan of the 'S' on the dial which for me is a real turn off.  In a dream world... I would actually like the platinum dial fitted on the titanium case (not possible I already know smile )

Cheers
Andrew

Thanks for the live shots Andrew.

I've seen a few wrist shots already and it seems the watch does wear smaller than the measurements would suggest, I guess the lack of a traditional lug helps.

Re your comment on the mix and match (dial and case), I too would agree that the dial on the Ti like its predecessor let the watch down a little. But why no swi

Thanks for the pics, Andrew.

For my mind, there is something “Not quite right” about the aesthetics - maybe it’s the bezel. Intriguing complication but the whole package doesn’t quite grab me. (I could be in the monitory though) Cheers

I agree. That “S” reminds me of the sport version of your standard hatchback [nt]

I like all 3. The platinum is very cool.

It seems as though plum is in...
