In Response To: What do you all think? *NM* *PIC* ()


I did some "surfing" and spotted this one, made for the South African Air Force.

For comparison purposes, I am also re-posting the photo of yours.

It appears that the South African version seeks to clean up the dial and improve legibility by deleting the "day" indication, deleting the 12-hour recorder, and going with all white hands.

But if you want a Lemania 5100 that is really legible, and can live without constant seconds, maybe this Sinn EZM1 wins the prize as the cleanest design of all.

Now how did we get started on this tangent?
