Uh... it reminds me of a roulette wheel, with the alternating red/black/white color scheme on that 24-hour section.

Exactly how I felt when I first saw it here on head-fi

It's a really nice watch, with a nice 'quality-feel' and the size is just perfect (on my wrist atleast)

I have been on the fence about getting a Nighthawk. I wish it had a sapphire crystal though. I like the blue lume also

Yep, lack of sapphire glass is a serious negative in my book, and I now try to buy "all" watches with a sapphire glass - they definitely stand up to tough use.

On my part, I finally decided to order a Stowa for myself. I placed an order for the Antea creme with the brown leatherstrap. It is tough to buy now with the Europe vs. dollar the way it is, but for roughly $550 (including shipping) I got a very nice dress watch with sapphire glass and a nice automatic movement to wear for customer presentations and special events/moments

I will post pictures in 6-8 weeks when I get the watch

Will

Here is my Hamilton King Khaki:

Got it right before Swatch bought the company. Even though it uses ETA movement, it is probably one of the last great American-made watches.

What do you mean? I am not following you here ...

I got a new watch, this isn't my picture because the watch is at the jewelers for a week or so while they order new links.

I've only been using my Nighthawk for 14 days, but it doesn't have a single scratch yet

The face is hardlex crystal, which shuld be right after sapphire in terms of scratch resistance.

That watch is busier than O'Hare during prime time!

Found in a drawer. Looks strikingly similar to the model I ordered!

Blue hands, small dial on bottom for seconds, etc..
