Your favorite complication
By: Thomas_3 : March 2nd, 2020-08:23
What is your favorite complication? It can be a watch you currently own, one you want or just a complication you find interesting. The one most useful to me is a watch that shows a second timezone. Some of the others I just have no use for.
Grand Sonnerie or Hour Striker
By: patrick_y : March 2nd, 2020-08:29
Sometimes you're at the office, you're working really hard and concentrating. Soon, hours pass by until you notice a faint "ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding" and you realize it's 9PM and you've got to go home! It's good to get louder ones so y...

I travel a lot and I don't find dual timezone watches to be that significantly helpful. I know how many hours I'm off from GMT, at home, at my new destination, and I can do the mathematical difference. But, whether at home, while traveling, or other, a Ro...
Date! I don't always remember the date...
By: patrick_y : March 2nd, 2020-08:40
I remember the day, the month, the year, whether or not it's a leap year. I remember when to adjust my watches on the months shorter than 31 days. But I just need to have a date! So many of my watches don't have a date (sometimes that date window isn't al...
A Power Reserve can be helpful too!
By: patrick_y : March 2nd, 2020-08:41
A well made power reserve is actually very helpful. It tells you when the watch is about to stop and how well the winding system is winding it. Great thing to have!

There are not many complications who catch me. The only one who is interesting is a perpetual calendar. The brand, how it’s made, and where it is made are for me the most important facts. So, for example, an Ulysse Nardin with an inhouse movement with sil...
Perpetual Calendar
By: baufoam : March 2nd, 2020-08:53
I really appreciate the Perpetual Calendar function. On my Patek Philippe pieces those watches with the PC also come with moon phase, etc.. but I love that Perpetual Calendar.

I understand
By: COUNT DE MONET : March 4th, 2020-06:07
In that context an equation of time complication, combined with a display of sunset and sunrise, would also be highly desirable? An equation of time is also combined with a perpetual calendar. To me: yes!
Agreed.

At least for sheer interest. But my favorite complication is the one I happen to be wearing that day. —Rick ...

the pinnacle of watchmaking is Remontoir d’ Egalite.

I would love to own this complication. Ideally with remontoir.
My favourite and most disliked
By: nwk00 : March 2nd, 2020-17:10
the date. It's incredibly useful. I don't really need a chronograph's precision nor do I need a GMT as I can add/subtract quickly from the local time. Having owned them I found sonneries and repeaters to be fragile. But I always found the need to need to ...
Another time zone is always useful, this would be my preference.
By: Jay (Eire) : March 2nd, 2020-17:57
Interestingly I have one GMT and another watch which could display two time zones BUT I never travel with either. You may have just created a new search for me, a travel friendly and versatile watch with a second time zone.

I like a tourby!

The cage spinning just mesmerise me! May get a Asian /Russian touby if I chanced upon one or a TAG if fortune star looks out for me,
