Epix 2 / Epix 2 Pro Comparison - Titanium White

Does anyone have both models and can give information about the differences in the shade of white? They are listed as Carrera white (Epix 2) and Whitestone (Epix 2 Pro). If you have both and can post pictures of them, I'd like to see how they compare. Basically on the fence whether to go with a Fenix 7 Pro in Fog Gray, stick with my Epix 2 or go with the Epix 2 Pro.

If I understand you correct, it's more cold, like white - not egg white. I think it looks cleaner.

Thanks for the pics. I wish there was a way to change out the white case for black so as to keep the non-black bezel. I really like the vented bracelet and pairing it with the white version doesn’t look…

The explains it for me and thank you. Finding bands for the Titanium White has been hard so might just go with Black this round.

I have both, and it's clearly a difference. But I can't see how to upload photos here...

Is it cooler or warmer in color? My fear is it is cooler and has a blue tint. I'm hoping it is more "muted".

Thanks for the pictures! I was also curious to see the difference.

I did notice however that the bottom half of the band on your Epix (non-pro) is not the original Garmin band. So perhaps the color comparison of the band is not the most fair.

Also, is it possible to add a side view picture of the watch cases? Would be nice to see how the different shades of white of the watch cases compare in natural lighting. The pictures on Garmin's website make the Whitestone of the Epix look less white and more sandish/greyish than the cooler/whiter Carrea White on the Epix 2 (at least on my computer screen).

I initially had the Epix in white, but exchanged it (for Black) because that was already too white white (cold) for me. If the labeling and pictures from Garmin are correct, it has even become more cold white.

What? Isn't it the original? Hmmm... I have to recheck. I review watches, so I have pretty lots of bands and watches lying around. If this photo what you're looking for?

I believe you mixed up two bands. The bottom half seems be from the Fenix 6 series lineup of straps (with the Garmin triangle being off-center rather than centered and with the wide 'dents' or indentations with every whole), while the top half does indeed seem the be the original Epix strap.

Regarding the pic, I was looking for a side view of the case (so not showing the back or front of the watch, but the side with buttons), but already on this picture it does seem to confirm my feeling that the Pro Whitestone is indeed colder (or more pure white) than the Carrera White on the non-Pro Epix.
