I just bought my Vortex and it has no date. It doesn't bother me at all...come on, I have the date on my computer, the date on my blackberry...and I can still remember things (believe it or not) like the day of the month. Soooooooo....no it doesn't bother me.

Would I want this on all of my watches.? NO, absolutely not -- this is because the date often adds something to the design of the dial.

Day Date is probably the best and my choice, but sometimes less is more. . .

I like Day-Date functions and have them on many of my watches. I also own a few that are without even a Date function. It's my preference to have Date at least and the watch has to offer something special to be considered if it does not have one.

I too prefer a date window and won't generally buy one without it.

HOWEVER!!! If it's a dress watch, then no date is fine. I don't need to know what the date is when I'm out on the town or in an interview or otherwise concerned with more important things.

But yes, I prefer a date.

My no date watches.

All of these I straight up stole from Pop.

Yes..I would get a watch without a date window ! I basically enjoy watches, so even though
it's probably more practical to have a date window, if it's a watch I would get it ! Many times
I find myself not even paying attention to the date window, because I'm looking at the entire
watch as a whole ! Smile

For a mechanical watch I prefer not to have a date. It's fine to have date on a quartz, but am fine without it.

I don't keep auto watches on a winder and have many that I rotate so any time I put one on I have to set the time. I prefer not o have to set the date at the same time.

I appreciate the fact that these do not have a date:
