The 38 case proportions were really nice when I tried it on, but the numerals on the dial didn't sing to me, probably because I have another dress watch with numerals.

Now I'm looking for a black face dial on a silver case of similar proportions.

my ranking is: 1. 38 2. 38,5 3. 40 But the one I miss the most, is still the minimalist 34 (as you do). Cheers, hope to see in in Hong Kong again soon. Henry

The 34 was really something. Like a good artist...

It is better aporeciates. Once discontinued. Hope to see you in your place soon, my dear friend. All the best. Nicolas

And the 1907 and Jubilée are top offerings. I was surprised by the turn they took with the 38.5 and the 40, the seconds

As they are present difficulties for me. All others if seen with no second had were mesmerizing. Possibly a central second would be different or a pronounced recess on the sundial. And as others said, looking back at the 34, there we have another top piec... 

That made me think a lot when I took this picture, Robert.

34, 38 and 39 mm are by far my favs. I would say 34 and 39, then 38. No seconds, no date, nothing else than the essence of Beauty and Purity. Best, Nicolas
