Cal 36 will be a great successor to the Cal 39 and Cal 100.
The silicon balance spring is notable. When I visited the manufactory in 2010, I remember the emphasis was on "tradition", i.e. we do things the way they were done 100 years ago. Seems there is now more emphasis on chronometric performance and the ownership experience (reliability, servicing costs). A welcome development.
By the way, what is the controversy over the Cal 100? It's obvious it was never going to replace the Cal 39. Was it too costly?
