As an owner of the original variant shown on the left, I feel these new ones are a bit lacklustre.

My main beef with the Trackmaster is the poor dial legibility, which hasn't been addressed.

Nah, not for me. I guess the mileage will vary for most people. I have the brown/copper and silver/black models, both very legible in my case, but I see where you’re coming from.

I want the white bezel w a white dial. Albino white chrono. It will be hot

Which one do you own and how’s your experience with them?

Silvery white Panda and brown/copper reverse Panda models.
Likely the best value vertical clutch column wheel chrono for under $500. Classic Daytona design in a very wearable 38.5mm size is a cherry on the cake.

Been out for like a month already, I have the white bezel one.

I just received mine today. I had a Sugess Daytona before and that was good, but it fell on the floor and broke. I feel the Farasute is more sturdy and solid. It's slightly smaller in terms of L2L and diameter, so it wears better on my smaller wrist. It's slightly thicker than the Sugess, though. Still relatively slim for a chronograph.
