I really enjoyed mine. I owned it for about a year which seems like an eternity. I had to send it in for service twice because of dust under the crystal but other than that a super watch. Here are a few more shots for ya:

I'm definitely a fan of the no-date LLD. I will be hanging onto mine. It's plain, but not. It's vintage, but not. It gets solid rotation action in the realm of my collection. I don't see the lug length as a deal breaker, either. You could probably sell it easily enough if you didn't like it.

Nice watch.
I also pondered one of these too.

But in the end, I really want a JL TTP '68. :love:
Will be a long, long term goal. :pray:

Lots of I really "liked" mine. Past tense says it all, it is a good looker though.

Loved the watch.

Then I got a Polaris.

Not much to be said after that.

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong

I wonder if the AT Vintage is the same lug to lug :think:

Dunno but the AT Vintage comes off as a big ass watch. 44mm and pretty much looks all dial.

Damn shame, Gerry. I was gonna give the AT to you as a "welcome home" present.
