I didn’t want to mention but, since you just did it … yes, also for my tastes the 12 dial is better proportioned with the indexes more centered. Also, that cut index at 6 does not convince me. With the 12 dial it is not present because the more centered indexes allow to preserve circular symmetries without the need of a half index below date.

To me the dial with the 12 marker is better because the indexes are more centered towards the middle. I guess for me it's the double indices which spoil the watch.
