Sticks. Don't know if it's symmetry, poetic license or whatever but I can't say I'm a big fan of their roman numerals.

For PM models like the DayDate I really think romans is the way to go. Sticks make me think of Datejusts.

Roman for the view.
But if you want To know the time in the dark choose for sticks with its luminescence |
