After years of different watches, I think I have now come close to working out what features I look for in the perfect watch. I recently got a Smiths Prs29a which is so so close to perfection for me. I find it difficult to wear anything else at the moment. But it seems the market for all the features I want is pretty small.

Manual wind, slimish, 36-39mm but pref 38mm, date!!!, good accuracy, nice domed acrylic crystal, good lume, good looking (hard to define that one)

Any suggestions? Perhaps the Smiths is as close as I'll get? The only practical problem with the Smiths is I have no idea what the date is anymore which is affecting my work! I thought the Hamilton khaki mechanical was close, which led me to the Smiths. My list doesn't seem too demanding to me. Vintage Omega Seamaster type watches come close too.
