man... this is driving crazy.

had a chance to try on a 312 the other week, very nice piece, but didnt fancy it since i love my 000 - and it looked quite similar (yes, im aware of the major tech differences between the 2)

i have been thinking of a Rad ever since i got the 000 back in Feb, and still havent been able to track on down at the ADs... have only seen pix on the internet.

there are a couple of 183s for sale by one of the UK online stores, but i would really like a 210 due to its simple dial. i can live with a moving sub second hand, similar to the 000.

so, my request is - can someone please post wrist pix of their 183 or 210.

thanks guys

Hi Eric

I had a 210, but if I had to do the Rad thing again I would pick the 183 between these two

Sorry, no pics!

Cheers

If you have a zero, the 183 is the "111" of the Rad world. Sandwich and clear back. Would make a nice addition. I'd go with the 183.

thanks guys. appreciate the suggestion.

looks like 183 has a wider audience!

I went back on forth between the 210 and 183 also, but in the end, the 183 won out for me. I have owned a 000 and a 176 and I always kinda wanted the second hand. It is not very functional but it is just one more thing to stare at and admire on the watch. There are some hard core Paneristi's that want their Pam's as basic as possible, and those guys generally prefer the 210.

I think that I have come to prefer base on Luminor's and with the Rads, I prefer models with the second hand. Either way you look at it, you can't lose to be honest, they are both fantastic watches and both models are loved by risti's. Best of luck with your decision.

Oh, I can't express enough how much I love this watch, the Radiomir case is the coolest, and I love the wire lugs!
