I've tried the Zeitwerk Date on many times.
Was underwhelmed when it first came out but it's grown on me to the point where I am definitely considering it. It is noticeably larger than the original Zeitwerk but also noticeably thinner than the striking time. The new movement with the longer power reserve and the button to advance the hour is very nice. I love the sporty black dial white gold versions but the gray dial give a bit more dressy/elegant feel. I hope to obtain a Zeitwerk one day but choosing which version is very difficult. The Date is incredible in person and would be an outstanding choice if the diameter is not a problem for you.

thank you very much for your comprehensive and interesting reply. The date is not so necessary for me. And I am not searching for a dress watch but for something „special“. Like you I prefer the Striking Time and the Date over the standard design. They ad...

you for sure made some points. In theory this might be a competition between “high romance” (Striking Time) and “romantic practicability” (modern movement with double PR in the case of the Date). Since both are romantic watches for me. But - as we all kno...

for your comprehensive and detailed reply which shows your passion very clearly. Your vivid description of winding your Striking Time makes my mouth water... 😃 I know myself very well. When I come to a decision about a new watch I do this without fuss or ...

I tend to pull the trigger. But I am not sure which one. The 36 hours PR are a no-go for me. So for me the Date with its modernized mechanism is the best and most appealing solution. Or I wait until the movement of the basic version get‘s an improvement, ...
