I am relatively new to luxury watches. Is having no date considered to be more pure or traditional? I usually like having the date on my watches, but clearly it is not a deal breaker for me.
more seriously, a date window often disturbs the symmetry of a dial, especially on a Chronograph. It's a matter of taste and Marketing tells us that the big majority wants to have a date, so all is fine
Yeah, I agree Nico. Sometimes placement of the date looks awkward. I also have this watch, I really like how the calendar is displayed on this piece. Flows with the overall look of the watch, IMO. ...
Thanks for cleaning it up! And for those who are curious, it is a 38mm, and it wears that size. For me, it is about as small as I like to go. But really a great watch.
I own one too and love it as a dress chronograph. No date, a balanced dial, six blued hands, and sensibly sized at 38mm (though it wears like a 39mm). And very fairly priced too.
