Dial vote - Monster version 1 or version 2

[man of kent]

What's your favourite?

Doesn't matter what colour, do you prefer the original blocky or the newer fanged indices?

I think I prefer the original, and will probably modify my v2 orange monster with an original dial.

Here's my new v2, but might swap the dial

[Chronopolitano]

It push came to shove, Id go with the original, but only because the Fangs on the new dial drive me batty.

But since there was that third option - 'Both are rubbish' - I opted for that one.
I love my Monsters, but just not the way Seiko made them.
So, while I have 7 Monsters, I do not have any in their original state.
My most recent mod: Low Blast case.

I really like the new Monsters. V2 all the way. I just wish they stuck with the original crown. The new one is nice, but doesn't match the watch.

[Nokie]

Another vote for the V2. Agree with Domo about the crown though.......

V1. I don't like change.

I like 'em both but prefer V1 a little more. How about the new Prospex 6R15 date only model? Too pricey for me (would rather own a Sumo) but I like it too.

I like them both but V2 edges it a bit for the dial, but i prefer the crown on the V1, reason i haven't pulled the trigger yet. Just can't decide on which to get

I *think* I prefer the over-all dial of gen 2 on the Orange monster. I think the "whiter" hour markers during the day, and the markers are black/dark framed. It looks good against the Orange dial.

But for the black monster, I would prefer the gen 1, the rectangular hour markers.

[Whoa]

Gen 2..but don't think I would ever buy one :-)
