A funkier brother for my Attesa?
So, my Attesa:
(pic stolen, though, because why not)
The idea is for me to have something more cheerful to choose from, for example when I need to quickly grab a watch when going for a trip etc.
I looked at a zillion white watches (mostly Eco-Drives, but not only), but where I'm hitting the wall basically every time is that the dials are what I'd call polar or snow white -- they all seem to have a cold hue, and I don't want that. Like, even this twin model:
If white, I'd like a warmer hue, going towards cream or champagne. Plus I'll be happy to see more funky colours if you find any.
Must-haves:
- solar-powered
- 38-40mm dia
- analogue, but can look at ana-digis, too
- light-coloured dial (may be multi-colour, drawings etc)
- no gold accents
- no plexi glass
Nice-haves:
- 2nd time zone or world time
- lume
- standard lugs
- sapphire
- radio-controlled
Let's set the price cap at around €500, although, ideally, I wouldn't like to spend more than €350.

I was thinking about the Oceanus but they may be a bit larger than you'd like at 41.5mm.

Not perfect, we keep looking!
It's 40mm, doesn't wear large, at least the black one.

I meant Oyster Perpetual... Have you seen the white? It's warmish and not pure white.

Yeps, too big, unfortunately. I looked another nice 'panda' from Citizen earlier today, but it still was 43mm.

There is a smaller Casio LIW-M610 in white but it's the "polar white" unfortunately.
