Help me decide what Speedmaster (DSOM) to purchase

Here are the photos.

I really like the Black\Black. But I cant get it at a decent price, it's takes concentration to view the time, and I may not be able to get it on 0% credit.

I can get the Pitch Black at 25% off RRP, and on 0% credit. Plus I can make out the time on it, and it has full lumination.

One is functional as a watch, and the other is just a piece to wear on your arm. It's such as hard choice 🙁

I just with I could have both!!!

Interesting thread! I have the original DSOTM, which I purchased in June 2014, in the UK. As each new version has appeared, I have looked out of interest and generally been pretty impressed. The exceptions being the all white version and the strap that comes with the GS. I looked and liked the Vintage and considered whether I should trade mine in, I felt the same with the pitch black and even with the deep black, but then I look at my original and think, nah, this is the one!

On saying that, this week I'll finally be picking up the leather strap from the pitch black, along with the 'new' clasp and it will be interesting to see how I get on with that combination?

I can't speak for everywhere, but in Thailand, where I live, where Omegas are only sold via three boutiques in Bangkok, the manager of one of the branches told me that the original dark side was still the most popular.

You can't go wrong either way, but here is the strap that to me makes this beauty really pop.
