Perhaps my real point should have been that the second version, with the same thin case and even-numbers-only had the "improvement" of the distinctive GMT hands and the red accents on the dial. It's probably personal taste / personal preference regarding which of the first two is the "pick of the litter" . . . I am happy to have the first one; I often wish that I had also kept the second one.

And here are two more of the "Favorite Firsts" . . .
