This or That?

Both calling to me... again. I have owned both in the past. Wish I hadn't flipped either.
Both preowned in similar condition. Similar prices.

As much as I love the MM, the Capeland ranks right up there, IMO. The carbon fibre dial and the comfort of the titanium along with the uniqueness factor is not to be ignored.

How many yellow dial divers do you like? For me, this and the Orient. That's it.

This is the only one I like enough to wear/own. It is so unique and gorgeous.

Why did you flip each one? Your answer might be somewhere there?

Because flipping was in my DNA at that point in my life. I have since changed. Maybe. Well... probably not. We'll see.

Plan B. Make a 40mm dive watch to rival Halios. Sell a ton. Buy a Grand Seiko.

MM300 and it’s not even close. Never really liked the look of the Capeland. The MM300 ranks right up there with the best of them.
