Yeah as I said normally I steer fully clear of anything with a day complication and I’m not at all fond of either the traditional 3 o’clock placement due to massive asymmetry, nor the Hamilton style of writing out the full word at 12 o’clock. But there’s something about what Sinn has done here.i think it’s the only one I’d consider.

(I also like the UTC model of the 105, which does not have a day complication).

Love the Railmaster-esque dial, hate the lugs (no offense to anyone that likes them).

I’m a bit weird in that I don’t really like day-date, with a notable exception: I like a vertical day-date at the 6 o’clock. I seem to remember seeing one or two other models but can’t remember what they were, but my favourite vertical day-date is the Sinn 105 non-UTC:

I left my last job a week or two before my 10tj anniversary and never actually received the gift I picked from the catalog of options–I think it was a piece of luggage! I’d much rather have what you got!

$9k in Tourneau gift cards? Is your company hiring???
