[Poll] Which VC Overseas 3rd Gen ?

Hi guys,

I wanted your feedbacks/feelings about VC Overseas 3rd Gen models available out there. During the last months I was following some of your posts on several threads including this one.
I am creating a poll and wanted to know which model and which dial do you prefer (ideally pick 1 model and 1 dial color).
I have picked only Steel models (except for the Tourbillon or Ultra Thin), but you can choose any model you want, just limited by the poll's options.
Here is a link to VC website just in case (link).

Thanks to all.

Do not hesitate to leave a message explaining your choice.

Cheers.

I have always liked the Chrono. If I was a buyer that would be the one.

For me also the chrono, the 42 mm is an ideal size for legibility. I do prefer the 2nd gen though with the big date at 12.

for Gen 3, I'd probably say the Overseas date with blue dial.

I think the Gen 2 is the best Overseas though, especially the white dial, non-chrono.

Worldtime in blue. It looks cool. Or chrono which no one ever uses but it looks cool.

I like the 3 gen's plain blue dial, really loved its depth and richness when I first saw it, prefer the bracelet on the 2 gen with the more pronounced MC motif carved into it. On the chrono I prefer the 3 gen with the date not at 12 which is too central and prominent for me.

I just got my new 4500V on Christmas. It started to be a battle to find but with some help from a friend (who has the blue chrono) and excellent timing we found this new one in NY and it was at my door 24hrs after they recieved my wire. You may have seen mine from previous posts. Its really nicer than i hoped for.
