Re: Hodinkee Wearing: Jack Heuer 80th birthday Carrera

Hello,

I like the looks of the 80th Birthday Carrera very much...

But there's something about the registers I'm not comfortable with. When looking at the watch...the minute register (right one) appears to be smaller then the register of the running seconds (left one).

I think it's because the more dense printing of indexes of the minutes counter...oh well...it might be just me that has this feeling.

When looking at the watch a little longer, you can see ofcourse both registers have thesame dimensions...as outlined before, to me it only appears when looking at the watch very short time.

Anyone else has this visual feeling??

Cheerio,
Abel.
