...always an intriguing watch!
I have always been attracted to this watch but I was never completely conquered; there are certain aspects that hinder me, for example:
- why not put the hour markers on the outside of the dial, and (if really are necessary) put the luminescent dots inside, having a more airy dial?
- the "high" frequency of the balance reduces to almost zero the glance of the direction change of the balance: I'd like a lower frequency and an effect like the Breguet "Tradition"
- I'd like that the double balance support has the waves finish (like the front of the movement) instead of the decorations, only with the regulations notch engraved... for my taste I find it in contrast with the minimal design of the movement
Apart from my poor whims, this is a very nice watch, especially the steel version with its blued outfit: I love the addition of the date and its location, and I find that the back is very original, with the rotor free above a completely close platina... I don't remember anything like this.
Unfortunately, no trace of screwed chatons!
Still waiting for Baselworld!!!
Have a nice Weekend, my friends.
