Looks like we have kind of a similar collection, even some of the same watches. The thing to me that seems to be missing in both of our collections would be a diver if that's something you would consider.

commented on Which Color for SMP 300M? ·

I'm struggling with a similar problem. I have always liked the white and the contrast with the black. The blue and 007 also had my eye, but not quite as much. So I was thinking I would buy the white one when I got around to adding that model to my collection. However, once I saw the green in person I'm now brain-locked in not being able to decide between that and the white.

I'm not familiar with the Monta but I would like to see one. I have the Tudor and love it.

Some mention the weight or thickness of a watch as being a disadvantage. I think that's splitting things pretty thin. I don't notice the difference in weight between my various watches when I'm wearing them so some grams here and there are not a differentiating factor to me.

Same goes for the thickness. Yes the Tudor is a thick watch, but when I'm looking at it on my wrist, I can't see how thick it is when reading the time, I'm not looking at it from the side. I have a 6.5" wrist and it looks fine to me.

I would be more concerned if one of these watches had a lug to lug length or width that didn't fit your wrist as well as the other, because that's what you will see in your day to day wearing of the watch.

Long way of saying go for the one that catches your eye/heart and don't sweat the grams or millimeters too much.

I'm loving my Farer Lander IV.  I call it my fun watch.  Looks great with a variety of different bands.
