But I love this entire package. The finishing, the colors, the fonts. If I had small criticism it would be more legible hands (may be more visible in person). As for the dial drama, I love the color and pattern. That same finish in maybe a tantalum dial would be sweet to tone it down. Also, what is the button on the left?
This watch loses its appeal to me the longer I look at it

At first, I was smitten, and came very close to ordering one of the first watches when I had the opportunity to do so. The longer I looked at it, the less appealing it became.
I actually even think the price is darn reasonable...

At 50,000 CHF, I even think the price is reasonable. This is exactly the kind of watch I like. Beautiful bridges, huge balance wheel, slow 18000 beat, beautiful finish, a classic look while still looking modern, the beautiful dial looks kind of technical which is very nice... Lots of mixed media. It's a cool design. I wouldn't change a thing! Oh, maybe it could be 2mm thinner? I have a small wrist, so more delicate looking watches look better on my wrist. And I ADORE the concave wheels on the back and the beautiful polished titanium bridge. Oh my goodness. I want! 50,000 CHF? Take my money!
I love how you write Sir :-), completely agree but when we meet one day I'll explain myself better on why I feel things have gone a bit topsy turvy as far as expectations and prices

are concerned, an example that comes to mind is Pascal Coyon's Debut piece and 5 times increase in 2.0, which reminds me of this classic
YOu're right! Everything is relative! But let's look at it this way, today a time only, manual wind, no date Patek Calatrava in gold is nearly 30,000 CHF. If you look from that standard, then these really pricy independents do offer a lot of value at 50,000 CHF. But yes, the illusion has to become true. And I adore Wall Street! It's Oliver Stone's masterpiece!
Indeed! What can I say! You must have VERY GOOD TASTE! In watches and movies!

And we must be geniuses! Since geniuses think alike! Another movie that I really like is The Best Offer. If you haven't seen it, give it a try - you might like it!
