Get the WG 3448
If you want a simple elegant dial,go for the simplest without the leap year indicator. IMO the WG3448 is a classic in the top 5 of normal production watch of PP.
Thank you all, premium wise.......
I am aware that the ref 3450 are rarer than the ref 3448, and also that almost all ref 3450 comes with a different leap year indicator. However, does the rarity and the leap year indicator justify the approx. USD 50-100K premium?
