I'm quite fond of these renowned Genta designs everyone knows:

I keep on looking for something similar in style, that will meet these criteria:
- day-date (windowed, not sub-dialled)
- sensible lume
- max. diameter 42 mm
- not too blingy
Of current collections, IWC Ing would be the closest match but I don't necessarily fancy the chrono that comes with the day-date, and the 45 mm is a complete turn-off.
The closest match I've found for myself so far is this Seiko SRP241:
(Found my own pic on some Japanese blog!)
But even this is a little bit too dressy for everyday wear for me, I'd ideally prefer something with Arabic numerals as hour markers.
