Agreed! Love that dial, but...
The date really is distracting. It would be best just to remove it, but, as Ken said, matching the color on the date wheel to the dial would certainly help. Also, would it be a crime to add a second hand? How many people dislike second hands? They really make it much easier for me to obsess over my watches' chronometry.
All that said, I want to emphasize just how beautiful I find this watch.

FrX, Thank you for the deeply thought and clearly crafted review. That metallic slate-like dial is still mesmerising upon second look after the excitement of the launch. I have been pondering about the see through case back. Whilst understanding your pref...
Thanks Melvyn for your comments!
But you don't have to worry since almost brands follow your advices: even when a solid caseback is obvious, commercial reasons oblige them to put a see-through caseback. ;) Fx
Love the new dial!
.. but I wish it were hand wind, date has the same color background. And then, see-through is always welcome. Thanks for your review, FX! I suspect this is rather affordable, right? Best, Ken
The dial looks...
.... Simply sublime. Gosh. Have been drooling since I saw this, oops! IMO, a see-through case back is a "must have", especially for a watch of this caliber. I don't know if it is only me, but I love to have watches with see-through case back. Once again, ...
Thanks Robin!
The most difficult with the pictures is to get the beautiful shades of light the dial creates. I hope that you will be able to see it in the metal soon. Thanks! Fx
Thanks Ken for your comments.
Frankly speaking I don't have the latest price list with me so I prefer to get it before answering you with a bad price. But don't expect a too "affordable" price! Fx

I have mixed feelings with your comments Jon...
I do agree with you about the date but I don't feel the need like you about a second hand. I would find it more appropriate with the smooth dials on which an animation is required. Don't forget that maybe a thicker case would be required too... Big thanks...
interesting observations...
Thanks for the review and impressions of the Midnight. -MW
