That digital hour glass is great. I also like the "NOW" I know I'd never wear them but the fact they are in existence is cool. I have a SunDial watch at home but don't like to carry a compass......

Simple, they want the brand or logo centered between the two hands like so, incognito brand recognitions!

I've heard that it was when Lincoln was shot/died.

AFAIK it's just symmetry, aesthetics, convention, etc.

Great watch 1800 isn't bad for a good medium weight watch but Fortis isn't known for it. Still think it's a great looking face but haven't decided on the strap yet
