I have been a Rolex, PAM, Omega, Chopard owner with a collection of 6 different watches, I think now is the right time for me to get the long awaited AP

first step is to identify which Off shore model to chase (needs a lot of studying) looking at several photos in the forum I noticed that there are 2 different fonts for the date within the offshore! I personally like 1 of them but need to understand have they changed the font on newer models or it is just kind of random?

Thanks

Yes, font changed a couple of years ago when the I serials were introduced. Strictly speaking it happened as the H serials were coming to an end, so there's a slight overlap.

Donr't worry about date fonts they are such a small part of a watch that has so much visual interest, which models and size are you liking 42mm or 44mm?

42 would suit me better, I still did not make up my mind but I like a Panda dial with a steel bracelet
