Now that's sad!

The sub seconds added another dimension to the dial face, as some said it, made it 'whisper' instead of being silent. In any case, both are great lookers!

If you guys are asking for the XP to have a open caseback, how about the RG Classic QF also in open caseback option? ;-)

Great evening by Chopard, thank you. And also to PuristsPro and to you Kong. Thoroughly enjoyed the evening with so many old friends and new ones too. The XPS was very attractive to many of us for its simplicity and the fact that it has a open caseback. O...

I appreciate the QF with the engraved 'Bee-hive' and need not have an open caseback though majority likes open caseback, Perhaps one day, we can have affordable customized engraved caseback. Kong

Looks like yet another great event
