Massive cases - the Richeville

 

Dear enthusiasts,

here?s a picture which may reveal an unusual sight; the Richeville chronograph and the Richeville date version.
It?s mostly pictured in a frontal view, which of course is a very nice sight
Nonetheless, those pictures may not always reveal how massive and large the Richeville pieces actually are.

Measuring 37x37mm (NOT including the long lugs), that?s for sure a big watch and i still remember exactly that impression when encountering the first of them.
And to my understanding, these are quite beautiful and interesting watches; particularly the big date/moonphase ref. 27600 is some really attractive watch.



Given the 25800 Vintage45 and this Richeville, deciding between them would be a tough time for me!

Greetings from germany,
