• Couple of new additions to my tiny Smiths collection yesterday. Both around 1960.

  • Love the arabic numeral/subdial one.
    like the slim bezel gold too but the 50's numeral that cut into 6 reminds me of my Omega that got stolen and not replaced, typeface/date window fetishists probably get triggered but i like it.

    My IWC cuts the corner off the 11 and 10 but i just don't care.

  • Glad you like them. I’m not bothered by the 6 either. Interestingly, my Smiths A404 has no 6. Does look neater…

    Not me, usually I'm fine with cutting off numerals because the alternatives are generally worse. That F.P. Journe where the numerals get bigger and smaller to avoid the various dials/indicators is awful atmo.
