Steve,

Please try a variation on this theme ... replace dots w/ smaller teeth, replace lume dashes w/ 3  6  12,  change chapter ring to black lume and gray seconds marks.   Change bezel to traditional diver bezel  15, 30, 45.

Second variation -- use the blue dial shown, but use the lume ring version from earlier...I believe it was on of Ralf's designs.  smile8.gif

I would like to say Dial #1 rocks.......awesome-awesome-awesome.......hand6.gif



Here are my choices in numerical order.  The first pic is really kewl looking and I think the white/lume dial get's it done.  

 1.



Pic #2   I like everything but the Dial color it's just not talking to me, if I could see another Dial color, what about yellow with black & red hands-tip the second hand in blue.....?  Just a thought.

 

2.



The last 5 pics, I think they look ugly, just my opinion.

 3.



  btw it will be 500m not 600m

Red letters are too close to the shade of the grey dial so it causes the eyes to strain and the letters to vibrate, see 2nd example. the words will be much easier to read if they are black grey or white. my GSAR has AUTOMATIC in red and I can barely see it. The real life dial may be better, but I doubt it, I would stay away from red letters. I think it also takes away from the red minute hand.

oops, no lume ring on these, I will repost!! done 8:25pm CDST USA

Ralf - I think this design is very good. As someone quoted in past few days "it is refined, functional, unique and yet has "classic " Blancpain styling.  My only suggestion would be that the numbers on the dial are'nt  necessary and only cramps the look.

I have a glycine lagunare, and while a solid diving watch, its lacks the minute markers that provide functionality. Also the makers on the bezel are prone to getting knocked / rubbed off.  This design addresses both. 

Regards,

Jo

Okay, who ever designed this... I will place an order tomorrow, perhaps for enough for my entire family.  This is the best looking design of any watch I have seen, ever.  Absolutely, the best, most outstanding, refined, design.  Function.  Legible.  Strength.  This is simply unbelievable.  Congratulations !!!  I want one, two, may be 4 of these!

Ralf & Steve -- I just have to reiterate that is absolutely outstanding!!!  I don't know of any watch that has numbers at the positions 1 2 4  5  7  8  11.  This is certain to shake up the industry.  600 meters -- perhaps another first !!!    I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT !!!  You've got the hour markers showing through the lume ring... the numbers popping off the dial. This has got it all.

I agree with these comments although still think the numbers on dial aren't necessary now (because of the visible teeth at hours 3, 6, 9 and 12 do the job perfectly).  Makes for a cleaner look.

Regards,

Jo

Actually, I have a watch that has numbers at the 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, and 11 o'clock positions.  They are not that uncommon.  Just look up the Citizen BM6400.  I wanted to insert and image but I don't know how to.
