I’ve seen some watch designs over the years that irritate me…
‘Aqua’ but only 3ATM…… basically means don’t wet it

My favourite:
Chronograph text on the dial when it's pretty obvious it is that (or other similar obvious remarks)

A lot (all ?) of the older Steinhart pilot watches have no stated water resistance at all, including one I own (luckily, it is sweat proof though) and the manual advises to put the watch in a pocket when it rains!

Maybe it looks strange, but with a rotating gmt-bezel you dont need a gmt-hand...
No gmt-hand but gmt-bezel shows 2 timezones
