The Triad ...
... has to be approached as the 'art piece' it is. It looks beautiful on the wrist, but I found it difficult to read the time, and you have to set it on the quarter hour. Most people expect it to be a 3 time zone watch and seem disappointed when the hands cannot be independently set. I quite liked the writing around the perimeter, much like a frame, but I like this design on F.P.Journe pieces and I know many don't. The case is 42x13mm and those who love Peter's Piccadilly case on their wrists will be fine with this. For me, with the straight lugs, it doesn't quite sit comfortably. I am generally better with Peter's thinner manual wind pieces.
But as a piece of art, it's gorgeous. It will be great to see what the Art Piece 2 looks like at BaselWorld next year ... not long to wait.
Cool shot of your PSM.
