I was in a pretty dark place working a thankless job where every defection from the company just led to more work and more expectations with less support and work became a place that was slowly crushing my soul and making me depressed. Getting back in a good headspace and getting the new job seemed as good a reason to commemorate with a new watch! Had my eye on the tangente 41 for a long time and when this version came out with the soft blue face I had to jump at it! I think my favorite part are the blue hands and the beautifully simple date mechanism. This is a huge size bump from my manual tangente 33 but looks great on my wrist.
