for me, neither :D
i'm trying to stay away from day/dates, while the other one has the date window catered for ppl who wear watches on the left...whereas i wear on the right.

but if i still had to choose, without a doubt the 2nd one.
for the price of the first one, i rather just go get a seiko skx007 / 009.

The yellow dial is stunning but dont really like the strap. Go for the black one.

totally agree, with the price, you could opt for seiko, or perhaps the orange monster with bit top up

thanks guys!

As I am about to make up my mind, the PVD Black has sold out now  :Mad:

Will have to wait or look for alternative.

Try considering one of the Seiko's diving watch. I think they start with SKX(etc) - those are very good watches. Good luck!

I own a couple of DB watches with Miyota movements - excellent tool watches. The PVD gets my vote!
