I am torn between Single Chinese with Batons and Full Batons. The single Chinese character, in red, if executed well, could really elevate the level and appeal of the watch as a whole and make it very special. The crux is in "if executed well". If not, it will look cheesy and cheap. In that sense, full batons is the safe (fall back) option.
And a similar story with the hands .... Brequet hands could work well ....

PS - it's hard to judge just from a picture, but looking at the M177's in post #4 above and #8 here (Announcement from US SEAGULL) I have to say that those numerals look mighty fine to me
I voted for single Chinese with batons, but I would be fine with just batons as well. I don't think Arabic numerals have a real place on this watch, though.
Whichever numbers we go with, I hope we don't use breguet hands....don't like the look of them at all
i voted all batons + 1 chinese, but i'm ok with full batons too, just please don't make full chinese it's the further thing from elegance that i've ever seen
I suggest if we have two or three close "winners" to allow the others, who have voted for something else, to re-direct their vote. Otherwise theoretically we may have a winner with 21% of the vote. If I see my choice is not so popular, I'd like to re-direct it.
