My problem with my equation of time, which was also 41mm, was that it just gets cluttered with the 4 dials. I really think a watch with all that on the dial needs to be at least 42.

Is it just me or is there definitely a seconds hand. A large seconds hand?

Lmao, sooooooo true, who needs the week number of the year? Is that even a thing? I thought it was pretty odd in the Army we sometimes used the Julian calendar, but never the week #. |

Almost perfect but lacking a second hand. I really have no use for the week number information. Is it just me?

I actually have a lot of customers that use week numbers when planning production runs, and therefore they order from us with delivery dates along the same lines. So 3 loads on week 37, 2 loads week 39, etc. otherwise, I would not care one way or the other. |

The rose with blue dial is a winner for me. I can't wait to see these in the metal.

Personally on this particular model I feel the white dial is better suited given how busy the dial actually is...

Some folks in the various forums have pointed out the week-hand indicator is going to block off part of the dial at some time since it doesn't move for a week. Also, the 40hrs PR is kind of low for a Perpetual. I hope it comes with a winder.

Good point Ben, I'd bet it does, as my 28520 came with a winding box.

Rose gold blue dial is uh-ma-zing. Always interested in a PC but never pulled the trigger. I'll have to check these out when they hit the boutique in Vegas.

I've had a rethink on a couple of earlier points.
I'm no longer bothered that it doesn't recognise a 53 week year. I don't think anyone has done it yet. Also, I am not convinced that this watch is any more legible than the 39mm model. It seems to me that the extra 2mm is taken up with the week indicator ring rather than enlarging the sub-dials? |
