I'll admit it: This black / white contrasting dial Transocean caught my eye, and I wished that it had been in the Heuer catalog . . . something nice about the classic tri-compax arrangement, with the contrasting registers.

: Hodinkee showed some live shots of the SS/White Dial/Mesh Bracelet.
: What do you all think ?
: I like it, clean dial and comes in SS with white dial or black dial
: with white sub-dials
: and either leather or ss mesh bracelet. Total of 2000 of each
: configuration can be had for $6.5K
: Also rose gold available in limited quantities of 200, think price
: is $16K.

: At 2X the price of the new Carrera 1887, is it worth it and how
: does it compare to your favorite chronograph
: in the $3-7K range of new watches.

: You be the judge
