Was looking at pictures of a Transocean earlier, absolutely loved it on first look. After a few moments the date display placement really started to annoy me though, ruins an otherwise lovely watch for me.

The time only has a great clean dial! Still, would have liked some Breitling wings on the dial.



Agree with the earlier thought, not loving the chrono...maybe the Panda tho?




Then again, I prefer the IWC!

I like the chrono on a black calf with white stitching. I could have sworn I saw a non-limited 01 chrono verision I loved at the boutique in NYC. I think there are alternate dial layouts in the non-limited verisions.

The non-LE silver dial chrono comes with the anthracite subdials.

I really like the clean dial on the non-chrono TO but can't accept a non in-house movement for the price, especially with the Omega AT had the same clean look with the 8500 movement at a similar price. Still, I think it's one of the best in their new lineup.
