Which Merkur would you pick?
One brand I find myself increasinglingly attracted to is Merkur, especially its dress watches. These generally come with Merkur's own hand-winding version of the Tongji. I'm struggling to pick a design I prefer though, never mind the different colour options these come with.
So, what do you folks think, which would you pick?

That salmon/orange dial with applied markers looks really good. You could say that has a sector dial as well. Blue is maybe the most versatile color but B is my choise.

A and B come in a variety of colours. I think B is an homage to a Montblanc Heritage, which becomes more obvious when you pick the white dial colour. The Montblanc also comes with a salmon dial (see below), but I prefer the colour choices on the Merkur over the more subdued Montblanc.
The votes were very much a toss-up between A and B, and I decided to go for B. Maybe I'll get myself A as well some day.
Since UK customs is now in full Brexit mode, and Ali shops mostly don't deal with UK tax upfront (Merkur did not either), I don't expect it before mid-May.
Ali canceled my order on B - it's out of stock.
