Dial indications...
The indications all concern the airport in Yverdon.
1) LSGY - International code (International Civil Aviation Organisation) for the airport: LS is for Switzerland, GY for Yverdon.
2) 433 meters and 1421 feet - Altitude (above the sea level)
3) Orientation of runway as on an aeronautical map.

Thank you Don....
Nice dial, I do like the simplicity, however what is this 05-23 marking on the dial? It's interesting, perhaps just there to make a conversation start or is there a meaning to it? A+ Francois
Thanks Don for the presentation
Opus 10, Cyrus, so I understand that he worked with Jean-François Mojon? What does LSGY mean? Thanks a lot for this discovery and of course, I wish the best to Romain. Fx
Many things I like here
The design is simple but well done with some nice details, the caliber is nicely improved with this rotor and there is the "spirit" of an aeronautic watch. Well done Mr Delafontaine. Francois
what is the 433m printed on the dial for?
very elegant and totally opoosite from the current trend of huge pilots watch. best, Horo

After reading
After reading the achievements he had over the past i cant say i am impressed with his own brand and design. Disappointed even, the dial is just meh....movement finish i would say acceptable. I felt more effort could have been put in.
He's still a young guy, Takashi...
...and if I'm not mistaken this looks more like a side-line activity at the moment. Give him a chance. :-)
