I work in Healthcare, so I never wear dress watches to work and my collection is mostly sports watches. I have a dress watch, but never seek more because I won't get as much value out of them.
I think a stronger argument would be to include old rolex prices. Even adjusted for inflation, Rolex was expensive, but not unobtainable and extremely reliable option. A position that Tudor and Nomos now sit in.
It does seem backwards, wide at the tip and narrow at the center. But you can see both lume plots when they're overlapped and being different shapes makes them easier to read in the dark, in my experience - like Mercedes, or snowflake hands.
I think that hand set is actually genius. The design let's you read the hour, and increases lume legibility at the same time. The design deserves more recognition!
Right? What would I do with the time? Accuracy wouldn't matter and even an unreliable mechanical would out last my length of survival 😅. So might as well be a fun watch!
