Help me choose. The new DOXA Sub 200T aquamarine
hoping to get help from you fellas. Turquoise/light blue, aquamarine...whatever you call it, it's my favorite color and has been for a very long time. It reminds me the place I call home. 🩵
When DOXA released the new smaller 39mm Sub 200T, it immediately got put on my radar. I don't know why Doxa released two dial variations of the same color, in Sunray/Iconic! I cannot decide which one. And I live 3000miles away from the nearest authorized dealer. I would appreciate anything you can share with me about this.

If you love the colour it's perfect for you. The green version really caught my eye as well, very nice!
I think this color looks better as a solid and the sun ray detracts from its depth a little.
I bought the green SUB200T 2 weeks ago and promptly sent it back. No doubt, the watch is of great quality. The green dial and gold indices were magnificent. My disappointment was the size/diameter of the bezel and dial. I own the Capt. Willard SPB153 and have never owned a Doxa before. Thinking that I would get a similar presentation on the wrist, I mistook the 39mm for the bezel/dial area as opposed to the steel case. I'd estimate the diameter of bezel as around 35-36 mm and the dial as around 32mm. I couldn't get over how small it was. Boohoo for me.

Interesting comment, thanks! I have been pondering the green but sounds like I need to wait untill they bring that colour option to the standard Sub 200!

Interesting you say this .. when the 200t was released it went straight to the top of my wish list . I have since seen it in a shop window ( I didn’t have time to go in and try it on ) , I was taken aback at how small the overall watch and dial looked. I will go back in the next couple of weeks and try it on but I’m thinking the sub 300t may be a better option for me ! 🤔

It was definitely a bummer for me.
I like the sunray but I would have to have the bracelet.

Very good feedback, appreciate you. What is your wrist size?

I like them (biased 300T owner) and I'd love to convince the wife to get the 200T Aquamarine
