Hey guys

I have decided i want to get the BCE soon. The fact that the latest version comes with double sided AR is the biggest selling point. Ive realized that you can get called out very easily if you have a breitling on and it doesnt have AR

Sooo...my question is..

I read on an older post that AR shows up the best on white dials. Is that particulary true? I think from the numerous pictures of the latest BCE, the darker faces show the AR better. maybe its the pixs, but can you guys comment on this from a real life perspective?

The BCE has really good a/r, was sitting across from a guy with a gen superocean today with blue dial and my black dial bce's A/R was just as pronounced as his. The HBB has a black dial and it has probably the most pronounced A/R I've ever seen. The BCE's is really really good regardless of dial color, the HBB is GREAT.

a dark colored dial will always show the ar coating better.
