You misunderstood- I am saying given all the choices I would pick the Exp MK1 but change to MK2 Dial and hands when I got it serviced. RSC will change Dial and hands on a MK1 to MK2 at service and you can keep the original dial and hands if you pay an additional 50% of the cost of the new Dial and Hands.

Im curious which bluesy is your favorite when acknowledging you don’t like them

I’ve got a favorite Daytona and have never been into them

I would be very happy with just 2 of those watches.

1) 116618LB
2) 126710BLRO

I would be very content with that. If you have room for a 3rd then a YG DD40.

Perfect 3 watch collection imho.

Thanks Peter I’ve thought about just three and I’d def have your two there also. The third I don’t know. I think I’d need a white dial.
