Why i like the portuguese
It is clean.
If i find a good pre owned Portuguese Perpetual Calendar with a full year window, and box and papers are complete, than i get it.

A Pallweber 150.
Maybe:
An aquatimer Jaques Cousteau.
If found a big discount, 60% off, than i buy.

I'm not a big fan of tourbillons,
but the dial looks fantastic and the overall appearance of the watch is very impressive, at least in the picture. The huge case frightens me not so much because there is really a lot to see. An eye magnet... Thank God the dark crown bothers me so immensel...
