Independents

Well, I think I’ve talked myself out of the Lange Terraluna (love the complications, I just think the watch is too big). I was also considering a Moritz Grossmann Backpage Transparent. Does anyone have any thoughts on this watch? I might be able to arrang...  

You might use the search bar above and look for hamatic and M Grossman.

At first I liked the novelty of the transparent, but the more I look at them side-by-side, the more I'm leaning toward the regular Backpage. Hmmmmmm........? ...  

Not the most legible but those hands ... Finishing is a class above Lange. Some details at the level of the best independents. I think you will be very impressed when you see it in person. The rose gold is very charming, both versions. ...

Truly beautiful.

You can not go wrong with either option but........if i had to choose i would choose the backpage. Alternatively, going back to your prior option (the lange) here are some watches I think might be some good alternatives. ...

Forgot to mention the purple-ish hands are quite something.

This watch looks beautiful

At 41 mm with a very thin bezel. The lug to lug distance is 51 mm thick. I wonder if it would be a wearable dress watch, as opposed to more traditional offerings. I am a MG Central Second owner; as a daily wear casual watch, I think iMG makes a superb pr...  

never managed to see it live but was fascinated by it! the recent price increase is a bit ambitious but who knows...may be one day

In direct light, the opaline dial glows ...
