....the proportions of the watch are very nice despite of its thickness. i actually like it, even the automatic movement is fine with me. it is just too expensive IMHO.

This could mark the start of a new collection A 40mm automatic chronograph in steel and pink gold. With in house movement. A limited edition of 500 pieces On the wrist, it manages to look retro and modern at the same time, a beauty. Seems to be a part of ...  

It was audacious to release this as a two tone case

But the historical link makes sense. I like also the small logo. It is a shame though that they did not release a manual wound movement, it would have been more in line with the spirit of the watch. Sometimes I wonder how the product managers fail to see ...

Vertical clutch

 
 By: jmpTT : October 24th, 2020-09:22
The new AP Cal 4400 features vertical clutch switching. Vertical clutch movements, as a very general rule, don't benefit as much from removal of the rotor as horizontal clutch movements. In terms of thinness too, Bulgari has this covered with the record-s...
