A lot of brands seem to really struggle to do it well. Probably because they're often using generic movements?
Maybe the consumer demand for always having a date is just that strong its basically mandatory for anything over a certain price. But it would be nice if a bit more thought was put in.
That's why I think the Rolex cyclops works so well. It just acknowledges it clearly, functionality and confidently.

Mmm. I need to swap the crystal with a non-cyclops for the stendardo auto. I find that a plain flat crystal and small unobtrusive date feels better for me.
Probably I'd like a nice screw down crown and back, auto, no date, to use without needing to worry about setting the calendar whilst swapping between trash wristware and fancy, as well as good waterproofing just in case.
But yea, most date windows look a bit meh.
More I see all these the less I want a date window.
