    This one reminds me more of one of the Corum Golden Bridge models:

    Absolutely beautiful movement, but I'm not sure what's wrong with that front ........

    The 'automatic' is completely superfluous , the date window doesn't 'go' and spoils the subdial look, the railway track in 'unecessary' and/or the 5minute batons are too inboard.

    I'll stop at four 'problems' ... it's just too.....

    YMMV

    I like that, even if it’s over a centimetre over my sweet spot
    Those sweeping scrolls of placenames are great fun

    Reminds me a bit of this Poljot worldtimer (which itself looked like the offspring of a roulette wheel and a ship’s engine telegraph
    It's the final countdown! PM me before they're all gone!

    Agreed. The railway track pushes the sub-seconds too far into the dial, making it disproportionately large Vs the guilloche. So close, yet so far.

    North, south, east, west on the bezel?

    What's with the directions? Can't find the compass needle. And the hour markers are indeed crazy to me.

    Well, the 1, 4, 7 & 10 are in their right places; so not that crazy, just a little disturbed.
    Some people have opinions - The rest of us have taste.

    Well that is why the watch is called crazy hours.

    I'd really like that if it didn't have a date at 4:30...
