you are right
Ivan,
thanks for your repy. I totally agree. There should be some credit been given for the innovativeness and I still consider taking this watch due to the central second and minutekeeper which are fabulous. Should I go for the XXI after all, I would definitely have also both straps and interchange between them, no doubt.
The 24 hour dial is not useless after all. For a pilot, and its about pilot watches here, it does matter over the clouds to realize if someone is in night mode or not. It does, however, do less magic on the ground.
Enjoy your wonderful timepiece. Is it, to come back to the original reason of this thread, somewhat accurate even if not a chronometer ?
best regards and excuse my many mistakes beforehand

Hi Just interested in what you meant by designed with flaws. I found it perfectly balanced and good looking. Type XX is too small for my eyes for a chronograph, XXI is much better. The small dial at the 3 o'clock position is really not of much use when th...

Hi Ivan, dont get me wrong, the dial is balanced in its general view. That is correct, and I will supposedly not buy the XX because it is too small, as you said. Same opinion. What I do not like with the dial of the XXI is the following: 1. the colour is ...
your points taken

Hi Timetraveller your points taken. I have the the steel bracelet version and I have to agree with you the dial colour has a tint of brown and goes better with the brown strap but it is not so bad after all. I think it is better than a boring black. Many ...
