Really? What is one valid reason why date is wrong at 4:30? Also did you know it's like that on ROCs? Nothing new here with AP and date placement. Excited for this new release, just like most things AP does (besides weird ROO 44s and funky divers).
Aesthetics.

If you’re going to cut a hole in the dial for a date you better damn well make it pleasing to the eye. Well aware it’s already done on the ROC and I think it looks horrible.
