Your reasons for wanting the mk1 were exactly the reasons I sold mine and got the mk2.Originally Posted by daveyw
It’s the version I have too. I had the choice between mk1 and mk2 dials/hands and went with the mk1. The watch seems to wear smaller with the non-lumed numerals and appears more discreet. It was this that won me over as I wanted a watch I could wear everywhere without attracting unwanted attention. As you say I also have never had a problem with the hands.
Great accurate movement, wrist hugging lugs, strong clasp, under the radar and waterproof enough for my needs
I found the mk1 was less discreet due to the white gold arabica reflecting light, plus the shorter thiner hands made the dial look bigger and unbalanced where I find the mk2 aesthetically pleasing.
Its obviously all subjective and also interesting how we all view things differently.
