New Year Eve Incoming Offshore Novelty SS

So after much deliberation I finally zeroed in on an AP Novelty Offshore in Stainless steel... This is the only AP I have currently but have had the pleasure of owning the 42 mm Panda and the Novelty Forged Carbon in the past.....
I was also looking at the All ceramic but somehow could not justify paying the huge difference for it...
I'm really digging the colour contrast on the dial of the Novelty Steel and after having owned the FC which I loved for its light weight I now find myself also enjoying the extra weight of the steel...
I think this watch will be perfect for regular wear and can be worn both dressed up & dressed down for weekends...
Here's some quick shots of my new love :-)

Congrats. Do you like it better than the FC? Was the FC Novelty too black? I've been waffling between these two watches for over a year so I'm interested to hear your take.
