Is this the same watch that KIH reported on
earlier this year? Have you had a chance to observe/handle it yourself? I believe there was an issue with how difficult it was to press the button starting the minute repeater. I was just wondering what your thoughts were on this if you have had a chance to handle the watch. I agree with your opinion on the tourbillon. I think the watch would be more attractive if it were not visible from the front. I don't think Cartier needs to put a flying tourbillon on the front of a watch anymore to bring attention to the fact that they are a top notch watch manufacture. The type of people who will buy this watch already know they are. Thanks for the picture and report.

Reverberation! You explained that very well. And it's what i zero in on when i listen to strikers and alarms. You get all the sound right but how long does it linger and how does it fade? Fantastic info you shared on this fantastic piece although i will h...
