This SIHH 2019 was the year of the perpetual calendar...

Vacheron Constantin's two awesome perpetual calendars....
Baume et Mercier's in-house perpetual calendar that is quite handsome.
And Montblanc's two in-house perpetual calendars that are also in house. The Gold Version is supposed to be around 25,000 SFr and the steel version a humble 15,000 SFr! Those are some amazing prices!
I agree about the hands, softer leaf hands for such a complex looking dial with so many round subdials. Montblanc watches are definitely consistently thick and I wished this perpetual was thinner. And 77 jewels in the movement? Goodness! That's a lot of lubrication points! It's got jewels like a German watch too! There's something about the dial that is off; the arabic numerals have a modern Bauhaus feel, but the rest of the watch has a more classic feel. The brushed, concentric circle, and frosted portions of the dial are all a lot to take in as well.
