Zenith: Hida dials are very special in person. Because of the material and the hand engraving.

I personally think the opposite, the dial is way more impressive than that version of 135 😀 Certainly not convinced by the price!

Zenith: Those are not nos movements, it is a modern reincarnation which started the G.F.J. series.

So sky is the limit on how many they can make ... Especially with that finishing.

Patek Philippe: Conceptually I like the idea of a stealthy complication.

But as often with modern PP execution is really lacking. They had to introduce a lot of refinements for it to make sense. Obviously not a stamped dial, a real embarrassment at this price point. Hands are basic and also simply stamped, more suited to a $500 watch from a micro brand. Case is historica

Chopard: New strap for this sector dial revolution limited edition.

It is a very elegant watch which looks great on black alligator, but sometimes one wants to have a bit of fun.
