Easy to see why. That is a real homerun timepiece.
Glad it brings so much pleasure, that is what the passion is all about!
Good looking watch
Seems i missed out on this. Even my dealer advising me not to hunt now as prices inflated. May have to “settle” for a principia.
Not surprised that the secondary market on these is getting hot.
This is a watch that basically has everything going for it; GPHG recognition, unusual complication, unique finishing style, very limited production, kari dial, etc. Everyone seems to love the brand, and a number of people on WPS have a Gronefeld Remontoir...

I wouldn't call the Principia a compromise!
Same level of finishing, very nice gold rotor, some cool dial+strap choices, comes with a really beautiful winder as well. Can't go wrong with either!
Huge congratulations!
Surprising that the wait is so long, they must be in high demand!
This is crazy impressive... congrats.
The dial is amazing! And tons of wrist presence without being flashy.
Greetings from its Salmon sibling!
Never had any regrets with mine, and like you , I love this one to bits. ...
I totally understand why.
Such a amazing and beautiful watch . Wear it in best of health. My 1941 says hi ...
They are all nice but...
... the Remontoire with this blue Kari dial is probably my favorite iteration from all 👍
Everything fits here
The dial, the movement, the case, the maker...simply stunning. An excellent choice you have made - enjoy this piece.
