I'd have guessed that
The tourbillon doesn't have any of the signature design elements of RD's work. It's an interesting piece, I don't know how I feel about the tourbillon hole in the dial, but I'd love to have a chance to make that decision in person (Hey Cartier, you owe the city of Boston a show, maybe this could be it?)
thanks for the sneak preview

Humm... looks very nice.
I'm seduced by this watch... but I have to see it... and to hear it! Thanks for the news! Fx
Looks beautifully done.
I would love to see, handle, wear, and HEAR it. But looks and sounds promising. Not sure about the size, though.... Would have loved the similar one in the pocket watch case, if it has to be 45mm.... crazy? Ken
Big but proportions are right
This works well despite size. Unlike say Astroregulateur which was clunky. - SJX
I fully agree!
In today's market you really cant do something under 40mm. ALot of folks talk about they wearing the watch and not the other way round, but for me i dont find that if the watch is big it overwhelms me, in fact to small and its puny, such as my Grand Seiko...
Thanks for the preview, would it be possible to
post a sound file? It is interesting that the titanium sounds better than the rose gold, as rose gold is usually the most clear. I find the finishing quite nice and the layout interesting. My only dislike is the crown, but that is just personal taste. Bes...
its complication elegance
very nice piece! while normally i would prefer a even more stripped down dial(skeletonized dial below those roman numerals) current demi set up has an unorthodox mix i like it
Skeleton dial isn't really possible
Because as you can see the movement is quite large so that would only work if the movement was skeletonised as well. Maybe in the future.... - SJX
Wow that is beautiful, love the dial layout, fits great. Cartier has been stepping it up
consistently year after year. Beautiful piece IMO
