Considering a 42mm Radiomir 1940
What are your thoughts on the 512 vs 620 vs 574? Pros & Cons of each? TIA!

I like the green lume on the 574 and even the strap, but would need other straps for occasions where I need to fly under the radar. Of the other two, I prefer the more traditional layout of the 512 dial rather than the inboard small seconds on the 620. Also I prefer a manual wind if it means a thinner watch.

I like the micro rotor and 12/3/6/9 of the 620.

this weekend and it's just as comfortable. If you really want the automatic the 620 looks like a winner, if you don't need the automatic you can pic up a 512 used for half the price. I like them both better than the 574. |

I prefer the 512, I think the lume works better with a variety of brown straps

I have a 512 and love it. Have a seven inch wrist and a 42mm 1940s case is perfect for a dressier watch for me. It gets a ton of wrist time.
