Questions about Master Gand Reveil

The Master Grand Reveil does not seem to get much press around here, and I am wondering why.  It seems like a great value when compared to other brands' perpetuals and also provides an alarm function.  I have seen photos of the Master Grand Reveil Fantasy edition with the black dial, and it looks amazing (not as crazy about the standard versions although they are also beautiful). I would be interested in hearing opinions and experiences with this watch.  I have not been able to find reviews of it elsewhere either. Is it difficult to reset if the power reserve is depleted? Are there problems with the wach?  What do people think of it?  Any idea how I could locate the Fantasy edition, assuming I could scratch together some funds after my most recent purchase. ;-)  I think I would be comparing it with IWC Portuguese Perpetual or the Patek Gondolo Calendario ref 5146 (both of which are more expensive, and in the case of the PP, a lot more expensive for an anuual calendar v. a pepetual).  Mostly just looking for some reviews of the watch, though.

Thanks,

Respo

Here are some answers >>> As you know, this PC has a sigle button for the reset of the complication. As for the IWC PC, Da Vinci or Portuguese, I was told that the PC JLC needed to be sent in 2100 for the reset. As for the moonphase, it happens that a "tooth" of the mechanism of t...
