I see your point but what really gets me is half of the 6 is cutoff! It’s their heritage collection and the original of this watch was first built in 1934 but i’m not sure if cutting off the 6 was a good idea in 1934 or 2020
@danandlisa@karenhynes@ScottW58
Not having the 6 was the first thing I noticed, deal killer for me. 9 12 3 line don’t love but but goes with the overall design, a partial 6 just ruins the look for me. ymmv
@ScottW58 I’m not liking that the minute hand doesn’t track the second hand. Unless it’s cogged and moves a minute in steps as the second hand passes the top.
Leave all the numbers off afaic.
@danandlisa@karenhynes@rc70@ScottW58 Wow, so now that you got my attention…the vertical line also obscures the brand name, and the 12 o’clock looks like I2 (which I see as i-two) but it’s not an I-watch, lol. Other than that it’s a really cool timepiece.
@radiolysis right! Why put numbers at all when your just gunna block em?! If you expect me to guess what that half number is, might as well leave it blank with one arrow pointing up and just let me imagine the numbers. Finishing morning beer now. Haha
If that small bottom dial/hand is supposed to be a second hand, no.
The small dial is the second hand but that’s not what bothers me. Elegant watch IMHO except for one thing
@ScottW58 The line between the 9, 12 and 3. It makes no sense and is jaring to the eye.

I agree. That totally bugs me, too.

Yeah damn other than that 6 I really love the watch.

@rjquillin @ScottW58
I’m ok with leaving the numbers off, but covering/cutting off half of a number is a problem for me.

Obscuring the numerals with complications seems a Longines “thing”. Not a fan.

That one actually makes my eyes hurt.
