About the watch, I fully agree the exclusion of the date is the proper design decision.
As for the size, I feel I can wear it OK, but it would have been easy to reduce it 2-3mm by simply streamlining the inner tachymeter. I see how this wide ring echoes the rear and the tapered movement trim, but it could still come down.
Nonetheless, this watch is a great success for Chopard. I hope to see one soon.

When this watch was announced, I was pretty excited to see this model in this previous metal but most of all with this movement. All in all a true example to commemorate this 90th anniversary. While I like the idea of having such marvel as movement in thi...
