It would be the bee for me if those were my options. Great on the wrist, super light. Had one, sold it, miss it. Was never a safari fan. I do like the new black and red 42mm but I'm very partial to the classic Panda. Good luck with whatever you decide.

Love the old Safari, not a fan of the new dial though.

You'll have to decide if you can live with a black watch with bright yellow. It's a very strong statement and less flexible with dress options. I personally have the old safari growing on me.

I'd rather have the new safari between the two. Fits my style .

Depends what else you have in your rotation- if it's your only AP I would go new Safari if it were me. The Bee is a striking watch if you have other more restrained looking pieces in your rotation 😄
