And the video is awesome.  Felt like I was in the movie theater!

Thanks for posting Kong.

Cheers,

the "ding" mechanism is just ringing when activating the chrono pusher (as I seem to understand it).

Not too sure about them copying the movie Tron though

I am also puzzled, an actuation, and then a strike ... but on a subdial, printed Sonnerie.
Maybe on 24th April, they would reveal something more.

to avoid the Tronesque intro and see the actual watch!

There's some interesting stuff going on in the escapement, maybe some sort of jump seconds or the like, that I'd love to know more about

when watching this.  Two motorcycles riding around on a watch dial.  Makes you wonder if they had to pay a licensing fee to make the video  The watch looks great also as most Claret watches do.

Stewart

good one!

Likewise, also looking forward to know more too.

Kong

Wow, I am really looking forward to see it in a few days!

First CC that I've really been excited about in awhile.  Seems like constant force is the 'new trend'... with CC, GP, FPJ, etc. launching variations on the theme recently.   As for the sonerie... neat to chime as the chrono is activated.   Would love to see in the metal soon.

Sonnerie... Constant force...  really tempting words!

Kong,

Is the watch a quarter repeater or minute repeater or sonnerie?  The chime is quite loud.

The constant force escapement is interesting.  Anymore information on that?

Regards

Ling

till 24th April during the unveiling.

Subdial printed Sonnerie though ...

The connection with Tron is dealing with thered colored hands.
