    I can't get over how successful a dial design this is: the two chrono subdials very clear, the running seconds cheekily perched in the name without needing a proper subdial, the balance of the three shades of gray, etc etc. Really impressed.

    My favorite part is how balanced the whole thing is. Its symmetrical down to the bullhead case.

    If you could have any TAG/Heuer

    My Tag Aquagraph, only because it is a unique diver

    rubber gaskets on the chrono pusher so you can time dives underwater (I think only the IWC Aquatimer can also do this)
    locking (push down) bezel for security - unidirectional, obviously
    visible orange o-ring on the crown that is visible if the crown is unscrewed

    The Siffert Autavia is a killer but not at the expense of a vintage Monaco. I already have a Cal12 Monaco so I'd go for the ultra rare vintage PVD version.

    not exactly rare but more than it's more than I afford



    I think if it really had to come to it, I could live with that being my one and only watch..... maybe....

    yeah, the white on brown is a beautiful combination, especially with that later dial format.
    The extra markings just seems to take it down a notch in the "smart/dress" vibe that the V2 dial had, which goes perfectly with the more casual brown leather.
