Ever since we first saw them at SIHH, the collective Time+Tide team has been crushing hard on the new Luminor Due models, particularly the 38 and 42mm offerings.

Typography matters. The choice of font or type is a more complicated matter than merely the arrangement of letters used and the order in which they appear.
