Due to the monopusher design, this replica watch is right up at the 2 o'clock position. Actually, if you look below the crown, you can see the horn shape actually starts there, with the line continuing through the crown. Yes, it is a little odd to see something jutting out from the case like the pusher does, but Ilike it.
The almost monotone vintage-inspired dial on the Breitling Transocean replica watch helps the sub-registers blend in quite nicely.The champagne color with a lume hue on the numerals and in the hands that gives that aged feel, a very special feel. They are set slightly lower than the main surface of the dial, so there is a crisp delineation around the subseconds (at 9 o'clock) and chrono minutes (at 3 o'clock), along with them having a slightly darker shade.
It was funny to me that the date window caught me out as it did. I have reviewed other replica watches with numerals cut off, and of course, read reviews of watches with that styling, as well as comments about those watches. While it has been a polarizing design direction (at least it seems that way to me), it was something here that, on the Breitling Transocean Chronograph 1915, finally got stuck in my teeth.
