Actually what is the different between 147 and 239 dial and bezel? The 147 gilt/gold color more prominent (blackbay-yish) while 239 is lighter yellow? Both dial is sunburst black?

I already have 143 but also eyeing for 213 or 239/147.
The bezel are the same, dial for 147 is brown while 213 is black

213 is quite nice in real, bezel is glossy and reflective. i was deciding between 213/239.

i feel 239 overall the color contrast is nicer, the previous edition of 147 is more brownish. those who are hesistating on the 147 last time probably have a better choice to consider now.

Actually i got the black dial, personal preference even though majority love the blue dial. Somehow find the black dial more understated and classy, blue dial like try too hard to be AP

Lol, and going by your reasoning, AP doesn’t do black royal oaks?

The clear Tissot winner aesthetically is the blue.

But hey, you do you.

oh i thought u hooted the blue dial. yah no right or wrong just that market in demand probably is the blue dial based on the quartz model. but it buy ownself wear then doesnt really matter. i prefer the white/rose gold one. will wait a while and see how it goes.
