No doubt, the Comet was a real beauty of its time, and the nose even is for todays standards. But the overall window design is quite different.
Dornier 728 Nose
Comet Nose
However, it seems like designers have re-discovered the power of beauty... A beautiful aircraft saves a lot of money for PR campaigns. And the CSeries nose is beautiful.
