All of them looks great !

I’d go for the third one because of the contrast of the black dial with the hours aperture, and the way the numerals take the space of this aperture.

Dear friends, Thanks for all your comments as a result of which I asked Aaron to make a few new renderings. The basic concept was really good but, after thinking about many of your suggestions, I asked him to refine what we had by making the new versions ...

Working with watchmakers who do it all by themselves. This, whichever version, is going to be a great addition to your fantastic collection. Oh yeah, hi.

Thank you, it is an honour

A difficult choice!

Of course, you're right

 
 By: ant : January 22nd, 2023-11:34
but you know (or maybe not) what obsession is like. It's like a ratchet, after each step you can't go back, only onwards. Hopefully for the better! Kind regards Antony

Excellently said.

All nice...

 
 By: Kurt Behm : January 22nd, 2023-03:29

Thanks for your opinion.

Take the first, Ant!

There is no need to get numerals, only indices with or without diamonds… Contrast and legibility is also the best by the first version! Yours, Adam

I must say that

the more I look at them the more I am leaning towards your viewpoint. Kind regards, Antony

Really nice work -- I also like #3 with the dark dial; I'd be curious to see how it looks with numerals only at the compass points (3 6 9 12) with the triangular markers at the other hour markers. And for giggles, curious how this design might look with R... 

Here you go!

Super. And thanks for engaging and sharing this journey with us.

I have a question, what am I seeing between 7 and 8? And is there any way to relocate whatever that is, perhaps underneath the 6 position where visually it would be less obvious. It could be just the angle of the renderings but on the first iterations and...
