Anyone cares to offer any insight of the 12 o’clock marker on every speedy? There has to be some back story with this right?

Design: Tada. Here's the finished dial.
Management: Looks great. wait...the 12o'clock marker, hmmm...
Design: slfjlj alksjfk slfjl !!!
Management: Got it. Lets get it to production.



From this little 57 trilogy.

When your looking at your watch at different angles or your putting your watch on in the dark you want to know where 12 is.
Beats having 2 markers that could somehow be misaligned ::stirthepot::

Simple as that.

I gotta give it to Smiths. That takes a good amount of staring for the second visual to appear.

Update: Elon just offered $69million to buy Smiths

And next week he's going to pay $10 million NOT to buy Smiths.

I wouldn't pay 10 mil for a 69 that's for sure but who knows what Elon would do.
