    Brothers in Arms

    After two weeks clearing 4 pcs of MKII, I am now left with 3 of them

    Sting Ray 70 (Acylic bezel insert) and 60. Both were delivered to me in Dec 2007. The 60 is unworn since then till now. Have been wearing the 70 in my rotation.

    Thanks to the buyers of my Sea Fighter, QUAD 10, MMT and Sting Ray 70 Pre-Built. Now i can do some season shopping. :wink:

    As for the Vantage, it is unique as i have serial no 001 of the custom edition. :D

    Check out the StingRays. Which do you prefer?

    I don't like the one with the mercedes hands as I don't feel they work with the FF. The the other one with the standard hands is sweet.

    When i first receive the 60, i was underwhelmed by my choice of mercedes hands with the FF dial. But after a while, i thought the balance of silvered hands on a matt black dial and white second hands isn't that bad. coupled with the saw-edged bezel, it gives it a completely different look as opposed to the classic look of the 70.

    I have yet to wear the 60 though.

    Beautiful. Because of Jimbo I may be buying a LRRP. :( Suppose nobody wants to buy my SM300 vintage and SM Chronostop for £1500 :P :lol:

    I quite like merc hands, but maybe not on this one. They are both really lovely though :)

    Perhaps you should wear one on each wrist and conduct a public poll!

    I have nothing against Merc hands, just don't think they work there. Really like the 70, though, very nearly caved and bought the other one you were selling!
