New Acquisition, Ladoire Mr. Green
Liked it a few years back when first saw it at the AD. Had the chance to purchase it and decided why not. The watch looks big but wears very comfortably. Not the easiest at telling the time, it has the GMT option but you wouldn't want to be relying on what the exact minute of the day it is. Maybe not everybody knows the brand. It is from a set of 4 different versions and each version had a limited edition of 12. There was Mr. Ice, Mr Gray. Mr. Race and Mr Green. Its not a high complication movement but it is interesting to look at. Really happy with it so far. Not to everybody's taste. Hope you enjoy the pics.
Cheers
Steve

We've talked a lot about this one when it was launched

No they are not, so if there are any issues it
will make it really difficult to get or make parts, maybe somebody out there knows if there is somebody with the left over spares?? Cheers Steve
I remember when these first came out....
Very interesting on both sides - must be lots of fun to wear. Neat to see one "in the wild". Darren
Yes, the movement is quite unusual with the coloured
bridges and black widow spider web on some of the pieces and for sure, its fun to wear. It definitely gets the attention by anyone who's eye it catches. I have to say the weight is quite light for its size compared to my HBB All Black, must check the diff...
Congrats Steve!
I have the Mr Orange version and don't wear it often, but actually do still enjoy it after all this time. I was actually told by a watchmaking friend that they would not too hard to service... well will find out one day... hopefully in many many years tim...
Wow, very nice RGT,I didnt know there was an
orange version. It certainly looks great, the contrast with the light grey / white is stunning. Looks easier to tell the time. I know from your other posts that orange is a theme, a great collection, my personal favourite is your Gronefeld, one I've never...
Thanks Steve!
It was made for me as a unique piece based on choosing all the different options from case, dial, bridges, etc. The back is amazing though with the mix of orange and chrome on the bridges, something they thought would be easy to do... but it turned out to...
