quattro's imaginative post playfully explores a horological 'nightmare' where his vibrant watch collection transforms into a monochrome palette, with a micro-rotor evolving into a tourbillon. This thought experiment invites readers to consider the aesthetic impact of color versus black and white in watch design, particularly when applied to iconic references like the Vacheron Constantin Cornes de Vache and Chopard L.U.C Quattro. His post serves as a creative prompt for the community to reflect on the visual allure and mechanical intricacies of their own collections.
But I thought the VC CdV Hodinkee version was a deep grey dial…did they also release a black dial version?
but it suited me that the photo made it look black... 🙄 Thanks for the kind words.
all things balanced and considered, as much as I appreciate the strong and ascetic aesthetic of the black & white look, I think it might just not be me, I'm afraid...
the CdV, in Pt case, black dial. It will be tough for me to resist if VC release it.
Some dream in color, others in black & white Lately I've been dreaming int x-ray,,trying to suss out how hidden things work, like this Blancpain EOT
but in two separate variants, as you know. A pt/black dial version seems unlikely, but who knows? Fingers crossed!
