The first one for me

It looks somehow more coherent, balanced to me. But the new dial is still beautiful! Enjoy! Dirk

Beacuse BOTH dials are spectacular!! Wow, really amazing dial, it would be nice to have the two watches with these diff. dials so you can just alternate one each day :) I like both quite a lot, thanks for sharing this and congrats!!

Both certainly look great and typically I would go with the Romans, but in this case the Arabics are my preference.

Awesome, Darren...

...I prefer the new version ! And having seen recently in Thomas' workshop how he makes and finishes those numerals, I can understand the attraction. A work of art indeed

New dial looks better and send me the old dial...

Congrats on revitalizing your Prescher, I think the Arabic dial is more whimsical and modern while the old one brings out a contrast between industrial finish vs classical roman index. Joseph

I'm usually a Roman numeral guy, but...

in his case I think I prefer the second generation dial. Having said that either one is fantastic, and you have done well to work with Thomas. He's brilliant. Enjoy! Cheers, Tim

Trepidation met me with this post...

Your Prescher is one of my all time favorite watches I've seen here or anywhere, so the notion of a revised dial design produced some anxiety for me (strange, I know, since it isn't my watch). However, the end result is absolutely terrific. Honestly, I ca... 

Here are a few more scans....

While I'm a lousy photographer, I enjoy trying to capture this one. Thanks for all of the kind words. The credit, of course, must go to Thomas. Darren ...  

Just spectacular !!!!!!!! Post some movement photos in natural light too!

As if I remember, that's the great part of having the gold numerals, is that they match with the gold movement!!!!!!!! Keep'm coming! you've made quite a few of us envious of your watch!! :) S

Why Independents Are So Wonderful!

I love both versions of the dial. Both of them show so much richness and character. It is also wonderful that you have the option of using two dials with the same watch. I can see why this watch would get so much wrist time. Regards, Jon
