Anyone else prefer the 26320 to the 26331?

I started my journey with a brand new 26420ti ROO, found it to be way too big and traded it a few months ago for a 26315ST 38mm Ruthenium dial. This one is a really nice size but it’s started to feel a bit too monochromatic for me. It sort of looked unnecessarily blingy for every day use. I’m now trading the 315 in for a 41mm 26320ST with black dial. I looked at the 331ST as well but found the 320ST with same size and color-matched chrono dials to be a cleaner and superior design to the 331. Does anyone else feel the same about the 26320? Excited to get my new watch!

Agree, I always liked the 26320 due to the uniformly-sized and same-color subdials. Congrats on the incoming piece - post pictures when it arrives!

I've owned 2 26331 and 1 26320, definitely prefer the 26320 and the same color subdials. While owning a 26240 now, I still believe the 38mm ROC is better portioned than the 41mm.

I prefer the contrasting subdials on my "reverse panda"

Goes 0 to 60 in 15 minutes but one of my favorite cars to drive, especially when it doesn't overheat and leave me stranded in an intersection.

Thank you! That is a 190sl, a poor man's 300sl, you can visually spot the difference from the fender vents on the 300sl and the 300sl roadster has different headlights/tailights.

Ahh haha at first glance the front end looks identical to the 300SL Gullwing but of course that’d have a roof. The roadster has different elongated headlights. Mixed the two up. How does it drive? Such a vibe for a sunny days out.
