Love version B.
It may be 9 months before it's available because there's a 6 month lead time on movements.

On Chrome I can't see any pictures Eddie posts, what does it look like? Is it a 36mm reissue of a classic Smiths design like the Everest?
"A man of little significance"
Looks good. Is that a clear case back?
Ah, that. I'm still hoping one day Eddie will make reissues of Smiths watches. I'd love one of those. Saying that I could well buy one of these Daytonas.

Bah! It works best for everything else.
Ok, just looked on Safari. I'm definitely up for version A. Can I reserve a specific number please?
"A man of little significance"
Very nice. Version A me thinks.
Love Ver B. How much?
Well worth waiting 9 months for, would be hard pressed to choose between the two, but if pressed, Version A, what are the chances of both dial options?.
Is that chapter ring rose coloured ? Really love version A
I agree. Subject to price get both and after a while put one back on the market if you don't like version A or B. I like both and that display back. is there a ballpark price yet?

Both options are brilliant!
I’d also be interested to hear what the ballpark price is?
We’ve waited this long; what is another 6-9 months!
This is going to be a cracker.
Am I mistaken in thinking that Eddie suggested, at one point in the discussion, that he was considering offering the watch with both dials? This way the owner could have it swapped if they wanted a change.
Edit:
Found the post, obviously things change but this was the gist:-

One of each please Eddie, I shall put a few shillings away each week in anticipation.
Version B looking seriously tasty
Good luck everybody. Have a good one.
Version B looks stunning. Eddie, what is the thickness of the case please?
YEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!
Get me the white/cream one - woop woop!
Very nice
What kind of price are we looking at Eddie? I know the NE88 isn't as cheap as people might think for a Seiko movement.
If you can put me down for numbers 076 and 078 please Eddie?, let me know when you need my deposits and I will send some postal orders RMSD....

Another cracker Eddie.
Dave
is the bezel options still on the cards, or is it stainless only big E?
Questions! So will the bracelet have the new clasp?
Very nice - look forward to seeing them come together.
Love the little arrow head on the centre seconds too.
Before anyone else says it please may I have number 70 of the black dial variant?
"A man of little significance"
Well as folk are staking their claims,, white dial and if at all possible number 2 for obvious reasons.
Have a good day/weekend chief.

As this will not be a cheap watch, I'm only getting 100 made initially. There will be 50 each of the black and white dial and each will be numbered 1 - 50. If it sells well, I'll get more made but the second batch, if made, won't be available quickly because there's a 6 month lead time on the movements.

Looks amazing! I could be tempted to go for both of these - price dependent. Definitely Version B though.

Loving both but probably B for me. This could generate a faster sellout than any other watch! 8 for me. Not that I'll be lucky enough to get it

Oh well put me down for four then please Eddie, 2 black dial, 2 white dial (one for me and one each for the boys)
Many thanks in anticipation,
Les

Looks good - Does it have a name?
Would be the black white dial for me, if it's really white and not a faux aged cream (it grew on me! )
Good choice of movement - I had to look it up, but it sounds a nice bit of kit!
