Title says it all. I’m seriously considering getting a 556 with the black mother of pearl dial as my normal wear watch (even I concede it will never be my ONLY watch, but maybe my USUAL watch).
From what I can see, it seems like a gada watch. You could dress it up for suit service, but you could equally take it swimming at the beach. It’s well built and gorgeous and not too expensive. Or so I think.
Tell me it’s not fancy enough to dress up with a suit. Tell me it’s poorly built or has QC issues. Tell me the dial is ugly. PLEASE, help me avoid this. I guess you could say get the regular black 556 instead but that doesn’t help much.
No date complication.
Only a pimp from a cheap New Orleans whorehouse carries a pearl watch...
Worse, it supposedly has a ghost date position on the crown. I know it's dumb, but that would bother me on a $1500 watch.
They changed movements, and new ones do not have a ghost date.
Really? Well great news then
