I've read some negative comments elsewhere about the large power reserve indicator hand and the long tail of the seconds hand being too busy. I can understand how one might think that from pictures, but I think in the flesh, it does not appear that way. Too me, these elements lend a whimsical aspect to the watch. To me, the core appeal of this model is the dynamic interplay of whimsy and restraint, playfulness and sobriety, all in a classic design with a modern look.

This watch is 100% Breguet and one of the most interesting pieces I've seen! I'm not sure how useful a power reserve indicator is on an automatic watch, but I like it anyway.

... and I certainly agree on the various comments you made regarding the design. This piece needs to be seen in person to fully appreciate the various elements and how well they work together as a whole. Mine says "Hi" (sorry for the bad cell phone pic).....
