In Response To: I had such high hopes for this watch.... ()

First, date window was expected, so no problem here. Out of all the "complications", this is probably one of the most useful; so it's function before form I guess.

But more importantly… is it just me, or has everybody forgotten (esp TAG) that it's the RINDT that won the Autavia cup, NOT the 2446C!!! I'm sorry, but this prototype resembles the 2446C, with its fat bezel, way more than the 2446 screwback.

And this is coming from a Rindt owner, who had high hopes… Good on those who dig the new model. Maybe it's better in the flesh.
