Propilot 41 Grey Dial
GADA is pretty subjective but if there was one in my small collection, this is it. Legibility, wearability, well built and nicely finished. This is a 2019 model with the painted numerals btw. The brand in general is quite grounded in the watch community and offers a lot of value. The only knock is their lume. Lume must be crazy expensive to apply, not just for this brand but there are others that suffer the same. They can’t all be a Seiko. Thanks for stopping by and have a great rest of the day!

Greta looking watch, I was impressed when I had the chance to handle one last year.
I suspect Oris decided "just enough" lume was enough. So long as the watch is readable when your eyes are adjusted to the dark, there is enough lume. For every "extra" added to the watch(lume, AR coatings, metal coatings, etc.) there is an added cost, and what might seem like a minor cost could quickly spiral out of control when "extras" pile up.
I agree but I think the lume is pretty good…
