watch_my_six
·For me, the '57 is a little smaller with a less muscular silhouette and more polished surfaces, so it can be worn a little "dressier" imo (to the extent that that might be a pro or a con for you). Although for that particular watch, the fauxtina was a little too much/brown for me in person, which ultimately led me to the '57 trilogy. (I also have a 145.012 on a light brown rally strap for more "casual"/sporty wear, which for me gives me the best of both worlds).
PS I'm also not against fauxtina in general (I really like it on the NTTD Seamaster); it's just that on that watch, like I said, it was too much. Have you tried them both on in person yet? (That can sometimes make a big difference for me).
