Certainly I'd rather have it at 6, but honestly it doesn't bother me as much because (1) It's at least centered between 4 and 5 and the wheel matches. I think it sticks out much worse on the "smoke" colorway.
I wish that watch were 38mm?

I see more space between the 5 and date window than date window and 4.
That kerning issue bugs me oh, so much.

Never thought I'd say "I wish there was a no-date version." But here we are. If you're going to go to the trouble of custom printed date dials, why not put it at 3, 6, or even 12?

Ive always liked the Nodus sectors and the updated versions make me like them even more. And the date looks fine to me.

Struggling to not buy. [emoji37]

Huckberry has a Timex collab available to purchase now at their site for $189.
Huckberry x Timex "Cola" Sport Watch - Limited Edition

https://huckberry.com/store/timex/categ ... ed-edition

We love Timex for their remarkable dependability, stylish looks, and ability to create affordable quality. Now for the second time, we worked with the legendary watchmaker to create our very own design. Starting with a blank canvas, we drew on styles from the 70s and 80s and went with a military-inspired ‘crosshair’ dial with polished and faceted 6, 9, and 12 markers. Finished with a woven stainless steel bracelet and a functional aluminum timing bezel, the HB x Timex “Cola” Sport Watch is everything we could want in a watch—and we’re pretty sure you’ll love it too.

- Diameter: 38 mm
- Thickness: 11.5 mm
- Case: Stainless steel
- Strap: Stainless steel
- Crystal: Acrylic domed crystal
- Function: Time, day, and date
- Movement: Seiko PC33 quartz

What is going on with that day/date text? Looks squiggly, and in some of the photos it looks like there’s a dotted border around the text. Went to the site to look at all the photos there, and it seems to look that way in most of them. Maybe a weird distortion due to the crystal...

Interesting Lip chrono collab with the National Federation of French Firefighters made for first aid professionals.

Image

Lip Courage
Price is €279 (roughly $313.08)

https://www.lip.fr/en/757-courage.html

The LIP Courage watch was developed by LIP, in partnership with the Fédération Nationale des Sapeurs-Pompiers de France (FNSPF), as a decision-making tool for all first aid professions: firefighters, doctors, nurses and volunteer first aiders.

The LIP Courage watch works thanks to a heart scale printed on the right of the dial in red for measuring heartbeats, and a respiratory scale printed on the left of the dial in blue for measuring breaths. An exclusive chronograph movement, with a double hand allows very rapid control of vital functions.
