    These had me looking... Actually I would consider $3k to be reasonable compared to Grand Seiko, for example, with some rather nice technology under the hood. That blue fibre dial is really lovely!
    Too many watches, not enough wrists.

    Around here that would be a matter of opinion. I consider 4:30 the most favorable location, or somewhere that it doesn’t mess up the index uniformity like GO’s lower right sector for the pano date.

    Many of these break Rolex rules so most likely not someone in the know.

    It is a pretty dial...except for the replica of the hood decal of a 1979 Trans Am at 6:00.

    I find B&R do the best with 4:30 dates.

    They're both very handsome. I wonder how durable a paper dial is.
