So I checked their website () and have no idea why they have the second balance spring but that would complete sense to me, despite not being a mechanical engineer 🤣😂😜 , I have seen other watchmakers do something similar For the capsule, they explained it below!

I had a closer look at the darker picture and there is a strap mounted on the case , its a fascinating watch to see , not sure how it will look in person ( to big or bulky maybe ) hope we will be able to see some live pics soon
