    Interestingly, the yellow is not lume, it is just there for colour. There is no lume on this dial, which is OK for me as I am not bothered about lume. Usually my watches do not see enough daylight to warrant having lume, and on the rare occasions I try to read a watch at night, the lume is either too faded or blurry to make out the time.

    Not massively keen on the yellow, but I do prefer those Heuer reissues compared to the latest model. I'd agree, no date is better.

The sub-dial at 3 o'clock is the chronograph 30 minute counter, and the sub-dial at 9 o'clock is the chronograph 12 hour counter. That is the same layout as my Montreal edition.
    I meant the subdial at 6 should match the subdials at 3 and 9.
    Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.

    I guess they have done it that way so that it is not so obvious that the date is half on the sub-dial, and half not.
