I suppose no digital watch freak has missed that we are closing in on a rather rare event, namely the moment when our digital watches will say "111111111111", or so, depending on the visual layout.
My personal opinion is that this event will look its best on the Ventura V-Tec alpha, but you can prove me wrong with some uploaded photos.
Don't cheat by setting the watch differently!

Posted at 11:11 11/11/2011. I went with the P3 since it has vertical parallel buttons to match the digits. It also seemed appropriate as the first digital with the date. Someone pointed out to me that while displaying the two 11's, it looks a bit like a big-eared alien in a spacesuit.
