HELP! Can’t Decide ...
SBGA413 (Four Seasons - Spring) or SBGW231. About to pull trigger on the 231, but now unsure and thinking 413. Cost difference is not an issue. 231 I’ve tried on wrist and works well, 413 I have not. Like idea of Spring Drive and, while both dials are beautiful in their own right, becoming more enamored with the 413’s. Truly torn.
Anyone in similar situation or would lean one way or another? |

Both great and very different watches. If wearing with a suit I’d go for the 231. For something more versatile to wear with jeans and something you could swim in then the 413.
The dial on the 413 is amazing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Oh man, the 413 for sure in my opinion!
When you use the word "enamored" when describing it, I think you know the choice.

Ah, I’m late to the party. I would have suggested the 231 as I’m the biggest fan of this watch as imo one of the best dress pieces money can buy due to its proportions, dial colour and timeless design. It’s a very different watch and style to the 413 and I’m sure you’ve made the right decision based on what works with your current collection and lifestyle, so congrats :)
