And when we don’t it looks a little odd. That’s also a factor in play here with my reaction and perhaps that of others. It’s just looks odd because it’s not what we are used to.
- be more robust to shock.... - have a longer power reserve.... - quick date change..... - maybe bring the more elegant designed rotor back, this current one is a bit too industrial to me..... Heck, if anything, pay JLC to do it, since it’s their movement...
I think it’s a little challenge to the “industry,” also, I think this 1972 released movement, obviously designed well before that, is still, from what I know, the thinnest full rotor-ed automatic movement. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
I realize the case and bracelet are platinum, but $105K seems a bit over the top for this watch. And, as others have said, the watch just feels 'off' without a tapisserie dial.
