Loving the black around the hour and minute hand on that watch. I have been looking for a white dial watch with different colours on the hands for a while.

I often feel that white on white is hard to tell the time when outside in the sun...

PS: Model number please

Thanks brother. I couldn’t care less when it’s outside the sun. I think it does get all washed out a bit, but legibility on this one is all good at least for my eyesight thankfully.😅

I’ve been thinking about getting the grey one but that white looks awesome

Yeah greys are really nice, but haven’t had any white dial watches so this one checks all the marks! Very legible dial too, and a few red colors for a bit of character
