It’s fine to not like this watch, but based on a lot of the replies here you’d think a good amount of people need a digital watch to be able to tell time at all. Like how much would you realistically be off by looking at this dial? Plus or minus one minute? I honestly cannot think of a single time in my life in which I’d have been wearing a dress watch, and simultaneously not be able to read the time on a dial like this and needed to know the EXACT time.
The far more egregious flaw here is going so far with the very pretty minimalist dial, but then spitting in the face of everything the design was about because you decided you could do without indices and numbers but just could not live without the fucking awful SWISS MADE text
And honestly, clocks and digital appliances telling you the time are everywhere anyway. The purpose of a watch hasn’t been showing the time for a long while
