Almost there
Remove the date. That will remove another millimeter. Add a 12-hr counter at 6. Get rid of the snowflake hour hand and voila. Oh wait, that's called a Daytona, never mind!
But the date forms a nice triangle with the two counters.
And in this case the white of the date aligns with the white hour markers. I can understand you strongly prefer the purity of a dial without the date, but this one isn’t bad (for me at least!).
I don’t mindit here - it is well integrated.
We could argue about the color, but since the index are white too, … 😅
Is the yellow dial overshadowing the loss of 2mm?
At 39mm now this one begins to look a lot more interesting (to me at least). Personally, I like the yellow.
I actually really like it
Been waiting for this downsizing for years. It’s finally here with a fresh yellow dial. Perfect for me! Best Gatsby
[please type something here]
Great case size and proportions. Crown and pushers look great. Looking forward to monochrome dials. And I love the date! Sorry Mon Ami 😉
This is nice...
...even though I'd like it a tad thinner (in the mid-12mm range). I'm sure there will be other dial colors later...
This is a very intriguing new model from Tudor indeed...
Lots to love about it and very different from anything else. But but but...do I really want/need a yellow dialed watch?!
