Excellent Choice JP!! But then again, I'm biased.
I was attracted to that watch since I saw it from a Basel press release last year, I thought I would go white dial, but when I tried it on in person it just... I don't know, but it just didn't sing to me. By chance, they had a black dial and asked if I'd like to see it. I almost said no, starting to think the EX II 42 would turn out not to be for me, but for the heck of it, I said: "Sure, let's see it." LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (that was the watch singing to me ) I don't know if I can put it in words, and certainly nothing against the white face, but from the moment I tried that watch on my wrist, I knew it was the one for me |
