    I too think Dancer's fave is more much compelling and elegant. HOWEVER: ditch the lining figures and use oldstyle figures for your numbers. If the typeface doesn't have OSF, then find one that does. Old-style figures (where the numbers sit up or down on the baseline to create an even texture in lines of type) are much more elegant.

    I honestly don't think there is anything worth keeping in the "final" design. Bad kerning, bad leading, bad hierarchy, poor font choice for the size. Hope that isn't too harsh.
