Glashutte Original Sport Evolution
Panorama Date
I borrowed
this shot from Jocke of WUS-EOT-Fame
 I think its UberCool but what do you all think? Difficult one this. I'd love to put it in the über cool category but I can't for two reasons.
1. The date - it's simply too big and which I might be able to forgive if it had black date wheels and was at six. As it is it just wrecks the symmetry of a beautiful dial/handset combo. 2. It looks a bit too dressy for a dive watch. This is probably just me but it doesn't look utilitarian enough for a professional tool watch. I seriously doubt than anyone would dive with such a chunk of beauty on their wrist.
All IMHO as ever and I'm sure others will disagree, so into the cool category it goes.
Cheers,
Gary
I too think that the date is a little big for the 4 O'clock position and the dressiness of the watch makes it a little less tool-like; however, the overall presentation - easy to read dial, high contast and clean lines - makes it ubercoool for me.
