- thank God - they haven’t written „Automatic“ or „Manual“ (😎) on it‘s dial.

In the middle of the dial there would have been some space left… 😉

Called the Heritage 48 in Titanium with a manual movement and 8 days of power reserve: ...  

The absolute worst feature of this watch...

As if the date wasn't bad enough, it had to be white! 🙄 ...  

You mean the date should be bigger and have a white background?

I agree with that.

No but...

My first preference is always "no" date but if they insist on it, the background color should match the dial's and the font color should match the markers' color. BIG PILOT’S HERITAGE WATCH 55 ...  

Fully agree. At least

For me the BIG PILOT’S HERITAGE WATCH 55 is a very positive example how to design a dial tastefully. 😊

… and some others not this damned “Automatic” written on the dial. For me personally a no-go, and so, for me, many otherwise desirable iterations ultimately fall through the rust…

Are used to be of the same mind Regarding automatic.

However I have thought about it more and looked at the dial more and I think they put that word automatic there to balance out the dial. It may be a good thing.I try not to let it bother me because I have a number of big pilots and I I want to keep a good...

For example, I am absolutely not a fan of date windows and certainly not at the 4:30 position. Now, almost two weeks ago, I bought a Blancpain Fifty Fathoms with a dial showing exactly that: a date window at 4:30! But in this special case in combination w...
