The watch is really well done. The dial is unlike anything out there - truly mesmerizing. The bracelet is very comfortable. I personally don’t mind the date placement - to me it blends well.

History wise you are right it has its own place in the watch world going back to the St Moritz. Yes it’s a blue dial integrated bracelet sports piece in a time where they are most coveted and sought after - no denying the opportune timing.

To me the other fun part: it’s actually attainable. Yes that’s right you can actually buy this piece without jumping through hoops - crazy right.

My AD worked with me price wise as I was concerned with resale.

All in all I’m very happy with the piece.
