Still can't decide if I'd go for the numbers or the batons.....

The "blue reflection" shots look brilliant. Can we ask for a blue C7 MkII please?
Batons not numbers!

I believe these are the first shots of the black numbered version of the C7 MKII. I think it competes with the BRG easily. It is more dressy compared to the green's sporty look and of course matches clothes much better. I also like how the camera makes the hands look black in some photos.

Yes the light really affects this watch, sometimes its very dark and almost black but then with a tiny movement and the light hits it all the digits and hands light up.

I wore mine all day today and I completely agree, when the light catches the digits it's amazing :-)

Very beautiful. Was set on the non-numeral version but now I'm not so sure!

It's like two watches in one looking at those shots. For a minute I thought your first and second shots were of two different wayches.

Looks really nice in black and the numbers really stand out when hit by a little light.

Great choice!

The C7 looks really good in black (I think it works well with the numbers rather than just the batons).

I went for the BRG as I had been looking for a green face watch for some time.

Thanks for posting these pics, they really help with perspective. I did pre-order one in the middle of last year but changed my mind and cancelled. I'm amazed at how addictive watches are, they're worse than pringles! I'm already spending too much time ogling the Steinhart Ocean 2 but might change my mind again and just go for the C7 now that I have seen your pictures. Or just get both.
