Don Justino's watch: Best, Nicolas ...
OOoooo! That's a good photo!
The more I see this one, the more I want to wear the blue one! If only the blue one had the Geneva Seal movement!
Blue is my favorite color...
But, on this watch, I wouldn't trade this for any blue AE and that includes the Maritime Blue version. ...
Yup. I'm still waiting for my "Monte Rosa" pink dial.

But I can't deny that you're right - no date is definitely better.
