The date window is a bit too close to the case and without the shorter marker, it doesn't look balanced with 9 o'clock. Also don't like the date font.
Would've been great if they just upgrade the movement without other changes.

I agree, I wasn't even expecting a refresh let a lone a completely new movement. The bottom half looks empty even though I like clean looks, it sort of throws off the balance from top half. The 3 o'clock marker added some detail.
The movement upgrade would have been sufficient. There is something about the elongated hour markers that makes the watch so classic Royal Oak, they are proportioned well with the hands and look great with the long lum plots at night.
