You get an approximative 24h display...
as per the press release of VCA:
"...Telling the time is a simple question of observing the shooting star, a cherished lucky motif for the Maison. Located at the outer edge of the dial, it completes its circuit in 24 hours...."

What a treat
What a treat these posts are for everyone here. Agree with you on the Tank Louis Cartier Sapphire Skeleton. Very nice. That Van Cleef / Christiaan van der Klaauw collaboration is a show stopper ! Dean
Some nice novelties from your pics.
Love the Van Cleefs, the Tank Skeleton, the Rotonde Day & Night, and the beautiful Rotonde 8 days tourbillon. Thanks for the pics, FX. cheers vte
wow a lot of winners Van Cliff & Arpels and the Cartier stand out
The Ludovic Ballouard is another interesting interpretation. Thanks Bill
The VCA and Cartier offerings were stunning!!!
Both are really at the top of the game. Wait till you see some detailed shots... Amazing! TM
Cartier...
Personally, the biggest game changer this year. Talk about raising the bar. The usual suspects better watch out!
The Tank Louis Cartier caught my eyes, too. Really superb!
The VCA is another excellent surprise, I must say. Best, and thanks for taking the time to post these watches in the rush of the SIHH.... Nicolas
Finally Cartier reduced the size of Tourbillon Ballon Bleu
It looks much better. And VCA is a nice surprise. Thank you Foversta. Regards, Constantin
Thank you, Fx!
Like you, Tank Skeleton is my favorite! Wow! That IS something, true to watchmaking legend. Not going for the bigger size, bells and whistles.... Very nice. Ken
Cartier really had something to show this year...
and I have to say the first closer encounter with this brand (and with their top technical executive) really changed my appreciation. Its a whole universe of luxury executed with a coherent style - some thing very rare in this industry. Much more to come!...

Journe CS new dial
That's a pleasant surprise! Were there any other examples (or hints of other examples) of this new dial style by any chance?
