Current production VC which I would like to own but
which unfortunately don't :-(
You all may know by now that I'm a HUGE vintage VC fanto a point where I sometimes wonder if I'm attractedto their modernpieces (the fantastic 250th anniversarypieces set aside)
Well once I list their current production pieces that I really like the list is quite long but I've stuck to 5
Here's my list
Tribute to the Great Explorers
Typical VC: Fantastic enamel dial on 2 levels and alternative time display

Malte Perpetual Calendar Retrograde
Saw it at SIHH 2002 and loved it immediately. Saw it again recently on a wrist and the fire reignited! Perfact proportions, beautiful guillochage and I like the fact that there is no moonphase

Malte Chronograph Excellent Platine
Love the dial and the curvy case; A home run!

Malte Perpetual Calendar Minute Repeater
It can't get anybetter than this

The Overseas rose gold dual time
The mix of chocolate dial and rose gold case is delightful and I've always dreamed of a pimp watch 

Close runner ups were:
-Skeleton perpetual calander in YG
- Toledi 1952 in RG
- Patrimony Contemporaine Excellence Platine
