Interesting thoughts, as always.
I completely understand your preference, especially given the huge difference in price.
The 40 mm case wears a bit large, though, from what I’ve experienced with the green dial variant.
And because I’m more into classic design, I would personally pick the 1860. But at more than double the price it’s clearly not a reasonable choice…

Yes,definitely a winner!
Being the owner of the Forest green dial version I do share all of your comments. It is beautiful on the wrist and,due to the sector dial,the small seconds seems to integrate more "organically "than with other LUC XPS watches. For me also one of the best ...
Great post. If it can't be 38mm, why not remove the date altogether
It is the same reason I passed on the salmon AE XPS. The sub seconds looks way too high. I prefer it anchored at the perimeter. Nice dial, nonetheless. I would be the fool who spends double for the 1860.
