HI Guys, Here is below the Vingt-Huit I picked earlier this year from KV atelier. The conception was a very exciting journey of 8 months. I was able to design the watch exactly the way I wanted. Some specifics: - one of a limited series of 10 case in tita...  

wear in good health - congratulations ! Best, mahesh.,

....Best, John.

Thank you for sharing this beauty with us. Best wishes Alkiro

Amazing in titanium, very nice dial combo as well! Congrats

Now THAT is a watch. Congratulations! If I were ever in the position to commission a KV I think I would just be lost as soon as I started having to choose all the elements that would make it mine. In any case, yours is lovely. Best E.

Its a stunning KV 👌🏻😘. I have been fortunate to visit the brand during the last swiss gtg . Great and lovely people and pure craftmanship 👌🏻🤗 would love to own one of his masterpieces in the future 🙏🏻

And great design choices you made 👍🏻

Congratulations and wear it in great health. I also love the Arabic numerals instead of Romans. They give it 'extra special' feel. Welcome here.

My attempt at a similar look: ...  

This might be the first one I have seen without Arabic or Roman numerals, just batons - and its a great look. Considering how EVERY version of KVs designs are just beautiful, you must lose a lot of sleep in trying to decide on your configuration!

that is very very gorgeous watch. I admire it so much. Thank you for sharing it with us

Not the first non index pointers KV dial ;-) as Kari did another version some 5 years ago... Still, absolutely stunning.

He did a series of warches (V8, GMT6, ISO) for me with elongated batons to match vintage Calatrava dial proportions. His usual baton only watches (like the tourbillon) tend to have shorter batons. Kari was really cool about accommodating my picky tastes!

I think it is a great choice! As much as I like Kari's work I am not a great fan of the font that he uses for the 28. I much prefer that used for the Observatoire. Whether Arabic or Roman. Just a question of taste. I therefore fully understand your choice... 

Going through the process of making all the selections can be overwhelming just having gone through it myself with my titanium piece. Your selections turned out fantastic! Enjoy and welcome to forum as well as the KV club! Cheers, Mike

I am trying to behave and not given in to the temptation to obtain a KV piece, but you are making it very difficult! Wear it in good health!

Wear in good health

I see this KV as the outcome of my horology journey. I had the opportunity to wear a lof of brands (Patek, Journe, Breguet, Hublot, Panera, Zenith, AP) but entering into the world of bespoke and hand made is a very different feel. In addition, the titaniu...  

Truly a masterpiece. Congratulations and wear in the best of health.
