An incredible under the radar watch. Not only is it comfortable, the titanium (ceramicized) makes it very light but it is a technological marvel. The gong is made from sapphire integrated into the crystal to make the sound clear and loud. It is the loudes...

Congrats Mitch! Wonderful watch with an incredible sound! :)

Thanks so much. The sound is amazing.

A wonderful and amazing repeater indeed and imo also one of the loudest 👌🏻

Thanks. I totally agree. The only chiming watch I own that comes even close is the UN Sonata Cathedral but that's a whole different matter.

Aaaah, the Sonata! What a watch. The only Alarm which sounds like a MR. Maybe along with a certain Patek.

The Sonata is, by far, the best alarm watch on the planet. Yes it sounds like a MR because the gong used for the alarm (which

Yes, remarkable.

Congratulations!

That's what attracted me. I was blown away by its total under the radar appearance. It is so very easy to wear. It could be a daily wear but....

A technologically spectacular watch 👌🏻🙌🏻👏🏻

Agreed. It checks a heck of a lot of boxes. Very unusual but very very attractive.

I wonder if the JLC MGT Grande Complication doesn't have this absence of gap between the " ghost quarter, " too... I agree with you on the quality of the sound. Did you compare it with the MGT Grande Complication?

Have not had the opportunity to compare it to the JLC MGT as yet. An interesting project I will take on will be to compare it to other MR's I can come upon.

The Reverso Tribute MR is less good than the MGT GC. The Reverso is more aggressive.

My warmest congratulations! I have seen the 2025 YG version recently…

Thanks so much. Will check about the ALS. I wonder if JLC and Lange collaborated on the technology but don't know who was first to market.

JLC I am sure. Lange I don't know.

I just checked again on their website, …

Interesting, thanks for the info. So there are only 3 with no ghost quarter!

Thank you, South. Interesting!

Super! Major congrats buddy

Thanks so much buddy. Ya that was a costly day, no thanks to you. Winding up with the 1963 was a fun diversion.

Very nice, interestingly sporty vibes for a Grande Complication ! What is this ghost quarter you are mentioning ?

The gap between the hours, the quarters and the minutes. Most of the MR have this gap. Only a few don't.

Thanks Nico - you beat me to the explanation. It is totally a gas activating the repeater and hearing no pause in the first quarter of the hour.

Wow wow wow! Thanks for posting ❤️

My absolute pleasure. I am incredibly lucky to have come upon this piece and work with the folks at Chopard.

An amazing piece.

Thanks and agree totally. Completely different than any other piece I have. For such a significant piece, it is fun to have it so dressed.

A great new addition. This is one of the more funky renditions of the Full Strike.

Absolutely designed for jeans and tee shirts.
