I chose this rose gold black instead of the blue steel

Mainly because of the date window. A date window in the same color as the dial changes the looks of the watch completely!
Along with a strap change to the regular master control calf leather. I think that shade of brown brings out the rose gold better and makes the watch less formal and more versatile.
The combo of the rose gold and black dial also attracted me alot.
Interestingly I passed the blue dial steel version when it was launched but this one I placed my deposit during the pre launch
Cheers

A bit underwhelming to be honest, it doesn't really offer anything new other than the metal or am I missing something? Absolutely with you about 24hr and no date. I would take the blue and be done with it.

Love The Matching Date Windows Background

Many brands could use a bit of 'education' about matching the date / day / month window with their dials. Well played JLC!
The rotor

Does anyone know if the new rotor is gold or just plated? Compared to older design that had 22ct riveted weight.
I always found this one a bit too busy around the center

even if it is of course nicely made and more complex than the simple, classic Memovox. But here simpler is better. Only the color combos, white metal & blue and now golden with black as a contrast, are very nice and on the plus side. 'On top': I like the ...
Nice pics buddy!

I have been sharing mine here. Still loving it ! I actually passed the blue memovox timer in steel when it was launched due to the date window. When I saw this rose gold black, I was blown away and ordered it. The date window in black made a big differenc...
I like the RG version!

But for me the date window disturbs the harmony/symmetry of the dial. If it were without date, a 24 hours alarm and equipped with a WT function I would buy it at once.
