Gotta agree.............the power meter should be moved and centered under the 12 and over the seconds sub-dial.  Case is very nice and basic dial is fine.

Eh, at first glance, it looks like a frankenwatch. While I like a power reserve indicator, this one dominates the dial too much.  Would like it a lot more without the PR...

It looks like something Bill Gates would have designed. You know, he tried to copy someone else's watch but just didn't get it right. :D

If the "10" marker wasn't cut-off, I don't think I'd mind the size of the PR... But, the fact that the "10" is half erased is enough to keep me from buying this piece.  Either make the PR a bit smaller, or make the numbers smaller... but for heavens sake, a cut-off number is unacceptable...

.......and yet, his watch appeals to over 90% of the market, including the business world, and he outsells everybody!  Dammit, I'm right and everybody else is wrong!!!!subtlelaugh.gif

As defined by Apple in their attempt to gain an increase of the miniscule market share they have been able to achieve as compared to PC based systems....................argue all you want, but it Apple was that much better as relates to price/performance issues, the business world would flock to Apple.....it has, in fact, done just the opposite in spite of Apple's beginning dominance in the world of desktop computing!
