I remember this one.

I had a deposit on a RG piece, but ended up backing out of the deal. I thought it might be a little too funky. It’s good to see it again.

I like it a lot, shows what Copard can do if they don't go crazy with the design.

The movement is also both technically interesting and beautifully finished.
