I had never seen this model prior to your post and it really is very special the case work and style really is quite unique, the double stepped case is just visually stunning on both sides of the watch. The beautiful blue dial with the black subdials and black Tachymetre scale and the silver hands all just work so well together and I have never seen a date at 1:30 either and that seems like a really good placement for it too. Wear and enjoy your new arrival in good health.
