But it's 46.5mm in diameter too! :shock:

Yes, but it comes with a box so you can use it as a desk clock, if its too big for your wrist :)

Yup! The LE version does look nicer but I don't have Arnold Schwarzenneger arms.

a) it's closer to the 'standard' marine watch
b) the date is far less obtrusive
c) you get the blue/blued hands

Second choice would be blue, with the black a distant third..

Nice watch by the way. How do the lugs work? Is there a regular springbar in there somewhere?

The LE was meant to also work as a desk clock. At that size, that's about all it would have been for me!

I've been so focused on the house by for the last few months that I totally forgot that this watch was on my radar. I absolutely love the look of it. As for which color, I think I'd go with the silver one, just barely over the blue. Whichever you decide, I bet you'll really enjoy it. :thumbup:

The white one is the one that my eyes keep getting drawn back to. They are all quite nice though.
