But certain asymmetrical designs somehow work well enough for me, Like Ulysse Nardin's large dates - Perpetual calendars with the large date at 1 O'Clock or the UN Dual Time with the date around 2 O'Clock. I still would have probably liked them better symmetrical.
Look at this great JLC perpetual: love it. But the date location? It's small enough that I can live with it, but prefer the Polaris' 12 O'Clock position
