YG President Photos

I am planning to buy a 118238 and was hoping to see some photos and hear some thoughts from owners to narrow down which dial/bezel/bracelet combination works best.

vignette dial

I think this is what a DD should look like :)

It's all a matter of personal taste and preference, but here are some pics of the DD 118238 I want. With that exact dial configuration (silver dial, SL sticks):


(Pic from an old eBay listing).

However, this older DD 18238 is no slouch, either...

from what I can tell the only difference between the 18238 and the 118238 is the polished lugs.....anything else I have missed?

This is a good question. I opened a new thread to discuss differences as I don't really see differences that justify the price to a guy like me.
