I've never seen either in person, but I would pick the Series 2 hands down. A more interesting and artistic watch IMO, a true end-game piece! An open-dial series 2 could be a good compromise between the aesthetics of the signature 1 and the guilloche dial series 2. What's yours going to look like? I'm very much looking forward to your review next year!
A rare encounter! :-)
I was walking around the Pavilion shopping complex in Kuala Lumpur (KL) this afternoon (one of the many benefits of being retired!) when I walked into one of the more illustrious watch shops and came across this beauty. Prior to returning to KL, I had bee...
Sham I totally agree, this is a stunner by GF
And I'm happy 24/24 7/7 to own one The winding is indeed orgasmic and it wears so comfortably. A keeper ! ...
Very nice!
Is yours in steel, white gold or platinum? Do you find it heavy and is it keeping good time?! You have a great tastes!!
Yours is the one I want!!! :-)
Steel, apart from being better value, also looks better than the rose gold in my opinion. Coupled with its lighter weight, all I now need is a treasure chest!!
Unfortunately or fortunately, twelve months later
I had the privilege to try on brand new stainless steel Signature One (sorry for the poor photos especially compared to Maltie's) - this could be the last stainless steel piece available. ...
Ah the devil himself! :-)
I would need to sell almost all my watches my friend and I actually love those watches very much. Hey guess what, my son just qualified as a Barrister at Law so perhaps one day he can spoil me with a Signature One!
At this price level,
I believe there should not be any compromises - it is the stainless steel or nothing at all. I would hate to think that I had to 'settle' for the rose gold model Thanks though for your feedback!
Personally...
I will go with the Series 2. SS Signature One just doesn't seem to grow on me. The RG version is actually very nice but with that size, it's too hefty for a gold watch. Series 2 wears high but still feel very elegant. The complexity of the dial makes it f...
Thanks a lot CL!
Your observations are most useful and I await the Series 2 with much anticipation

Yes I did thank you
but I think he took the middle ground. Yes I too am partial to the RW Smith simply because I am more of a traditional guy who likes most things classic. The Signature One may not be as futuristic as the offerings from Urwerk or MB&F but it can never b...
The crystal doesn't look too good on that SS Signature watch
Was there plastic on it or remnants of the previous admirer’s lunch? Sorry to be a whiner but I want a clear view of the innards! Cazalea
You are correct Mike!
In South East Asia, ADs tend to wrap the entire watch in plastic probably due to the demands of their potential clients. I did not want to ask for the plastic to be removed unless I was seriously considering the purchase which I am not in a position to un...
