I like the idea of the 6119 but not a fan of how they laid out the dial, I'm bothered by the dots behind the indices, the railroad track and the sector on the small seconds, whole thing lacks balance and proportion in my eyes. I love the movement though, finally they are producing movements relative to the case size. My biggest pet peeve is Patek's insistence on using tiny movements made in the 70's for <35mm watches in modern 40mm+ cases.
The 6119 has a new movement that was specifically designed for it. I’m sure Patek will use the movement elsewhere, but this was one of the biggest points for me was a movement that filled the case.
