your personal preference between AC and non AC
In Response To: It wasn't actually released until Feb of 2000 ()

Keith, Those pictures are magnificent. Thanks. If you hadn't bought your AC, and had to choose between the AC and Non Ac, which would it be? I am leaning toward the AC. Reason, I just purchased a Seamaster Pro, blue, and it has applied markers and logo. With all of the engraving, and the face having substantially less text on the AC, I think it looks cleaner, and unique, albeit, for 9999 made. Are the markers on the AC printed on as is the logo? I think if I indeed did purchase the non AC, it would be too much like my current SMP, with the exception of the face color and bezel material. Do you think the AC is too similiar to my new SMP? Should I wait for another model? My desire factor for this watch is really high, and if I would have found this watch two weeks ago, I would have bought it and not the blue, although I really like the blue.
