I don't like when the date makes a hole in the dial. It must be well thought, well located and big date even better... If we cannot avoid it. An example of a nice date: The Datograph.

Why? It is part of the idea behind the watch.

Curious...

I am relatively new to luxury watches. Is having no date considered to be more pure or traditional? I usually like having the date on my watches, but clearly it is not a deal breaker for me.

Date is terrifying especially between 4-5
Got it.
By: Watch_This : January 20th, 2019-13:14
Yeah, I agree Nico. Sometimes placement of the date looks awkward. I also have this watch, I really like how the calendar is displayed on this piece. Flows with the overall look of the watch, IMO. ...
Welcome here, Drew!

That is a very nice looking GP watch you have! That's the 49480, right? Please feel free to post more about it. Best Blomman
Thanks Drew and warm welcome to our GP forum

The Anni Fiat, Ref 4948 is a great looking Chrono, pure without date. CC PS: I took the liberty to crop the black borders of your picture
No problem.

Thanks for cleaning it up! And for those who are curious, it is a 38mm, and it wears that size. For me, it is about as small as I like to go. But really a great watch.

LX- Here you go. My wrist is a little over 7β. Hope this helps provide some context. Cheers Drew ...
Super attractive
By: howardm09 : February 4th, 2019-16:12
Very classy , especially loosing the date window. Great price point compared to the 4945 and 4946 both with date window. Wear with pride .
Congrats on your 49480!

I own one too and love it as a dress chronograph. No date, a balanced dial, six blued hands, and sensibly sized at 38mm (though it wears like a 39mm). And very fairly priced too.
