I appreciate the new twist...but having some doubts that the carbon face will look busy - especially with the lume insert, polished case
and all the other cool things going on with this watch.
Regardless, this is going to be a tremendous timepiece!
Interested in your thoughts. Thanks.
First of all welcome to 3T, you'll find the WISdom here is incredible woohoo.gif
There was a lot of talk when the original came out about CF dials and different colors, etc....IMO Ralf decided to keep it simple for the original release and do something different for series 2....you can probably go back to the original design threads here on 3T to see the discussions.
As far as the black is concerned, I think it will look great, my guess is it will look quite different in different light conditions, angles, etc. more so then the other colors. I was dead set on a Red dial, wanted that from the beginning, probably would have gone with black as a second choice.
Personally I like the CF dials and if you are new to Benarus Ralf's first watch the Barracuda had a Blue CF dial that is amazing.
I think the Mega with the CF dials will be incredible.
I think it's a matter of personal choice and taste. I wanted the black CF but felt I already had lots of black dials thus I went for the blue CF. :)
