·Looks like the dial finish is different on the GMT vs the 3 hander.

·Just out of interest, I literally changed the model number by 1 digit and got this:

·Both work well tbh, although I prefer the GMT finish as it’s more lively.

·Clearly you ignored what Geneve watches had in their webshop a month ago then 😉
I must have missed that one. Probably my attention was drawn by the Rolex. I mean Sprite. I mean the black and green one that doesn't look like a Rolex Sprite at all. No sir. This is avant garde design, not a homage or anything.

·Great, another journalist with integrity, whose reporting will be totally trustworthy 👍
The lug width is now 2,3mm shorter which apparently "makes a woooorld of difference" 🙄
I must say though that the video shots of the actual watches are great and make me realise that the gmt's are my favourites. The biiizels of the gmt bring a wonderful bold colour to the party. That Sprite gmt is totally making me aroused, wow!
The three handers are too muted, again we are faced with renders telling us lies about the colours 👍
Green dial of the gmt shines more like sparkling emerald compared to the three hander which aint bright enough imo.

·Must say the blue looks the pick of the bunch, seems a nice dark hue.
The green also looks good and seems to be dark which is a plus. Odd no rubber strap for the green though.
Good thing there are options for everyone 👍

·The video starts with "last night I was at a TAG Heuer dinner and after toooo many bottles of wine..."

Actually for me that 2.3mm difference L2L does make all the difference.
My old Panerai 49.9mm whilst wearable was at the extremities of my wrist. BB58 48mm = sweet spot.
The problem happens when width is 42mm & L2L 48mm can wear oddly wide depending on the strap width (which I doing with my Speedy). Also find Seiko turtles suffer the same

·Of course dude. I much prefer subtly tones (unless a screaming orange - some days I miss my Orange Monster - total summer vibes).

Good to see this render of the Sellita movement, clearly Sellita's AMT division makes the Sellita look prettier than usual

·I assume that the rotor and engraved TAG Heuer logo is what "made to TAG Heuer's specification" means 😝

·The barrel must be completed different to reach 80h of PR. And a lot of the components that follow suit, too.

When he said 'They asked me to be honest', I thought he was gonna say 'I love the Aquaracer but the movement sucks!'

·Could be either way, IMHO. Maybe LVMH has just negotiated a exclusivity for 2-3 years for their use in TAGs and Hublots 👎
