3483 is a total top contender for me. What do you think gives it an edge over the 570?

I like the tool watch looks of 3483 and find the case less conventional. When I tried on a standard WG 570 many years ago it didn't call my name. I thought I might get bored and I am no stranger to simple watches. Also prefer steel (and platinum) over WG with steel 570 at another level in terms of cost compared to 3483.

At 31mm the 2457 is pretty small. Consider an Officer's Campaign 5054 at 36mm
