I prefer the outgoing 39mm OP over any of the new models. Don't hate the double batons, just think it's not necessary, and simple is better.

The double stick dial is a call-back to classic Rolex, so don’t get your point.

Lol �� Patek and Rolex have used double batons since the early 1900s. Where do you think Invicta and Steiner stole the cues from. It’s classic and iconic.

You should research a little further back than last week at the mall kiosk.

Excellent information. Great to see the double batons have been used in the past.
