Have you guys noticed a slight difference in the date font for the number 1 when the date is the 1st or the 11th? I've noticed on mine and in some pictures that for every other number the 1 has no seraph (hanging bit at the top). It's just a straight line. But on the 1st and 11th there is a seraph. Does yours have that?

Weird. I guess it seems to be a 2824 based thing. Superocean, steelfish, SO II etc. all are like that. Looking down at my wrist, the Skyland definitely has a seraph on "12".

Skyracer doesn't have one. I suspect the Masons have a hand in this mystery somewhere.
