Just noticed that the whole hand is teal…
but I still like it…Also the teal Speedmaster logo…
You didn't notice the counter or 'tail' as I call it...
...shaped like a tiny America's Cup trophy? I get the tie-in, but it is so forced and 'cute.'
Ok then…
Well both of them …teal is kind of the point here. They are marketing it as a sailing watch so I think it’s ok…obviously we are talking aesthetics as the movement is exactly the same as the PO I own.. ...
I have a pet peeve when watches get cute...
...put that stuff on the back, on the box, on a certificate, etc., but not on the dial.
Matter of taste. The trophy at the end of
second’s hand is what I like most on that model😁
I'd have to be a dedicated America's Cup kinda guy . . .
. . . to take the plunge. It's eye-catching, for sure. Thankfully the UD keeps my dive-watch fantasies from getting full-blown. "Do I really need another when I've got . . . . . . this?" 😌 ...
If you look at the bottom of the 3 o’clock sub dial…instead of a 12 hour hand
Interesting way to solve the problem of the countdown function…
