··Seamasters ForeverTo me, the BB54 looks pretty decent. Sizing that's true to the vintage model. No red at 12, no gilt bezel markers. They seem to depreciate a fair bit, so it would be easy to find good deals in the second hand market. There's Japanese sellers on C24 with new stock and good deals sometimes too.
Pelagos 39 design is also appealing to me, but the grade-2 Titanium isn't. Feels like they compromised on materials. I assume that cannibalizing sales from Rolex must be a concern in general.
It's a very lovely watch. I almost bought a BB54 several years ago. I was at the AD, money in hand, fully intent on purchase. I can't pinpoint Exactly what it was that made me not purchase one, but I didn't and have since moved on. Definitely there is something about the dial that I find more attractive than a 6-digit sub dial, though.
