I share the same sentiment...

Nevertheless it’s a great effort to add another complication to a wonderful watch

I must say I like the fact, there's no interference of the dial.

It's a clean dial, no power reserve indication or retrograde seconds or whatever cluttering.

I like it!

Not quite monochrome, some nice blue accents. The dial layout is interesting and the date works - a winner for me, provided it is not too large

On the large side...

And the 10 o'clock pusher is to adjust the date I assume?

Great watch no doubt about that

But personally I’m not a big fan of those large retrograde date indicators. They eat up too much dial space for my taste

Very nice incorporation of the date.

But I am in the minority of those who really like the retrograde seconds hand, including how it overlaps the dial and so still prefer that model. But very well done.

It appears to be

a slightly modified Retrograde Seconds model with that piece to the left of the dial still in place but without the second hand attached

I definitely like it!

For me it´s a harmonious solution for the date, although it hides a little bit of the movement. But the GMT indicator does this as well. Best Thomas

I’m on the side of liking it.

However, those long lugs make the 40mm Tradition unwearable for me. Hoping to see some iteration in the smaller case too.

This is quite nice...

...I think it works better in pink gold though. For what it is I think it's something of a bargain (MSRP white gold $38,600, pink gold $37,800).

I like it... a worthy addition to the Tradition lineup

Personally, my favorite is still the 7097 but I think this is a great piece for someone who requires the date.
