Suddenly the 7 to 3 shift looks pretty good! 9 to 5 not bad either.

A refreshing change for the Swatch group to offer dial imperfections that are actually intended.
Didn't Rolex do this by accident on some Explorer dials in the 2010s? Or were they just two 9s instead of the 9 and 3 actually reversed?

~$175 out of Switzerland, so not that much and while I doubt they'll be in that much demand, it would be highly ironic actually importing one into the US and paying the 39% watch tariff on the 39% tariff watch.

The logic of this Explorer dial escapes me! Can anyone explain it? Those I’ve seen have a 3 at the 3 position.
