I hesitated to distinguish between the pointed V and the flat V. When we conclude that the pointed V was (a) earlier and (b) more scarce, we must wonder, "why the hype about the flat V?" In my opinion, this is just hype, and I would not pay a premium for this flat V.
This terminology was used to market one of Arno's watches, and the reference remains. And we probably promote it, by giving it a separate line in the Reference Table. Still, people seem to like the look of the "Flat V", so I decided to give this one its own place in the Reference Table.
By the way . . . Surely, you count the Chronomatics as a different execution, so we have at least four Sifferts . . . let me study the jump from four to six.
