Neither is bad looking, but neither is the look I'd go for if I were getting spectators, personally. The RLs look too avant-garde, and the Gravatis need more brown around the tops, IMHO.

These Crockett & Jones Hamptons are my all-time favorite spectators:

The Gravatis are a bit too forward for my tastes and as for the RL's, I'm not into cap-toe specs.

One of my favorites would have to be EG's Malvern in chestnut/white.

I dunno. I think the brogueing in your example is finer than in the EG's. Price being equal, I think I would go for the Crockett and Jones.
I really wish they still made them in white buck for less than $350 but.....

The C&Js need a brown throat.

I am sure you could have had them both ways in the Golden Age. ;)

I'm sure you could have but, that doesn't make it look anymore appealing.

You have to say after cruising thru all the available spectators that the Broadstreet tan combo still stands out there for price, design and construction - AD bring it back on! And I had a chance to buy some for USD200 and didn't. Woe is me!
Hmm I got mine for $25 :p
