Land Rover rear window

Several points here about "Its face resembles the rear window of a Land Rover". (1) This applies to older Discovery models, not to any Land Rover (2) Why is this WP worthy? It shouts "so what" to me. (3) In detail, the shape is mirrored which reduces its impact. Would anyone object if I removed the sentence as irrelevant? ( I have no objection to it remaining in the Reception section.) -- SGBailey (talk) 08:38, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well, regarding your point 2, the hook was interesting enough to get 6567 hits and qualify for DYK Stats. Your point 3 does not matter because the reliable source says "resembles", not "identical". Your point 1 is also moot because the hook says "a Land Rover", not "all Land Rovers" or even the "latest Land Rover". In conclusion, it is the DYK-stats supported, i.e. interesting, hook of a DYK article, the design of the face of the watch is notable, being part of its aesthetics, so, for all of these reasons, the hook remains.
