Happy holidays, and please be careful!
Love this time only selection. I keep wanted to get a perpetual, but the hassle of setting all the time and fussy dials make me want to get more time onlyπ
Perpetuals are indeed usually more trouble than it is worth it. I would say that ones by Lange or the old JLC eight days where you can move all the indicators forward by a day with a single push make most sense to me. Happy holidays!
