The Golden Horse symbol on the lower portion of the domed link dial further ties this watch link back to vintage as do its applied hour markers and framed date window at 3. It's this style of date window which leans into the fact that there is going to be a date rather than trying to hide it away at 445 that I've link come to feel really makes a date display work. Think of Grand Seiko with its similarly framed date windows and of course there is the Rolex Cyclops.

But still I actually preferred the way the AP sits on the wrist wearing slightly smaller thanks to its short link lugs. The Patek's dial layout is also familiar probably meant to evoke the sporty three-register chronographs that were so popular. Still I actually preferred the AP's four-subdial layout. It might be because I read this website too much in its early years and was coached up to think the Universal link Geneve Tri-Compax was the epitome link of a cool and complicated vintage watch.
