    Do agree that the wrist shots really bring out the beauty.
    I have been thinking exactly the same.


    As much as I love the look of the Tintin, I am still a little unsure of its versalility vs the normal black dialed Pro.

    it is the same case and hands and movement - the difference is the red text on the caseback and the dial

    I have both the Tintin and the standard speedy - as for versatility they both wear exactly the same and I suppose the tintin feels a but more special so I use it more sparingly.
    but thats just me and I keep it on the bracelet for special occasions.

    If you wanted a Tintin for everyday it would be just fine - i'd suggest a strap and keep the bracelet for special ocasions... save on bracelet servicing costs if its an issue.
    a strap really can transform any speedy pro but more so the tintin...

    Cool thanks for the info. A plan of action is now forming in my mind! A nice speedy rocket ship dial is next on the list.

    Brilliant, just the kind of info I needed. I know the standard will go with most situations, but that Tintin dial is just so alluring

    Thanks

    Alluring is the word indeed .... its so very 'black' too ... it makes the red and white stand out more...

    Really like the look of the TinTins. Think they will be quite sought after in the long run. Very nice video review there.

    Yes why? Design wise it doesn't remember me Tintin at all, this is just my humble opinion...
