lost in translation
Agree with you the first is really nice
The dial is really exciting
My only regret is the calibre 18: sellita SW300 + Dubois-Depraz module
It's not really innovative regarding the( crazy ) price announced in europe : 4600 euros

The one with blue sub-second looks so handsome... out of my price range though..

you missed this one just hot off the presses
I'm a little in two two minds about these.
The narrow bezel and high dome crystal look fantastic but I have a fear for those crystals. hey last time they used them, they were a horribly expensive replacement piece and they are very exposed on these watches.
But they do look really good here too.
I've said elsewhere but the Calibre 7 (that's 2892/SW300) could well be the first non-chrono Carrera that I could see myself really liking; the 2892/SW300 makes it that little bit more interesting.

Both are really nice. I'll take one of each please.

Back to that crystal for a bit.
The last time I checked the numbers, an official dome crystal for the older Carrera was something like a £500 part and that one wasn't a proper double dome like this one looks to be. It'd be interesting to find out how much a replacement for this one would cost.
You can see the dime a little better in this other shot from David @Calibre11

I love that panda dial. I bought one for my Speedmaster but I can't seem to convince myself to put it in there.

A dilemma I know all too wll. That's how I ended up with two Speedmasters, shown here by my favorite watch model:
