Panda, although the black sub-dial hands are hard to read.

Why have one when you can have two for twice the price? Lol

I like the black one a hell of a lot. I like the white/silver 116509 the best, but out of the two being offered would go panda as it is not as common as the black 116509 (not that it is really common anyway).

I like panda more although black is also nice. Just prefer some contrast in the dial when it comes to chrono.

It is an old thread but age-old questions, so I decided to float it again.

I think the panda looks great, but it is definitely more eye-catching, that is why I'd go with the beautiful matte-black dial. Probably the most under-the-radar of all gold Role watches out there.

i love both watches but do they purposefully try and make the chrono illegible?? lol

seriously, the one that has the visible red chrono hands has intermediate, subdial markers that are hard to read....and the one that has the legible subdials has hands that dont have enough contrast against them..

i do really like the panda with red chrono hands!
