Bill,
I appreciate the offer of information.
As to your question, I don't much regret selling the automatic Patrimony Traditional. I thought the crown and date window were each too small, and I replaced it with a Patek 5107P, which I prefer.
The manual Patrimony Traditonal has been very appealing, as the absence of a date seems fine to me for a dress watch to be wound and worn on occasion. Now that it is available in platinum, it checks all the boxes on my checklist as a timeless example of perfect design.
