Somehow it’s the ‘7’ being un-nibbled that really stands out.

And the 5 is not in the right spot due to the awful date location.

Your pics make yours look classy though

I can still see the flaws in the design though
or maybe it’s just not as “in your face” ?

Plenty of vintage chronographs had this look. Were you aware of that before you started this thread?
There seems to be a trend around here of people slagging watches because of some design element not to their subjective liking. Tends to put a damper on any real discussion of the watches themselves.

Nope I wasn’t aware, I just thought this was a rare example.
I just don’t like subdials that are just plonked over other elements of the watch dial, that’s my main gripe.

I don’t disagree with that sentiment. On vintage chronos though, it often comes with the territory.

Yes, the flaws are all there but, somehow, the pics tend to call too much attention to them. I think pics usually do that. Photos are often great to let us be aware of some design details, but they also can focus too much on the tree and may loose a bit of the forest. But that's one of the reasons we like them, isn't it?
