There’s a seven page article featuring this watch in EuropaStar magazine And it’s on the cover! I love the dial, it’s the hit of the show but there’s also a new movement behind the dial, it’s Kari‘s 20th anniversary watch…Jim
The future of horology are the talented people and independents over the Big Houses, would you agree?
This dial is not my style. Very well executed, just personal preference.
I believe photographs may miss characterize the effect the dial may have on this watch, somewhat like when I bought my PP 5740, everybody thought the date being on the dial was a killer but of course history has proven that wrong. if you read the entire article and the premise behind what the dial stands for it may have more meaning for you… Jim
Anybody can have an enrmal world map on the dial, this particular dial took several months to make by a famous Japanese artist, I don’t really think you can compare the two… We are all entitled to our opinions…Jim
Your handle tells me we would be thinking alike. A world renowned independent watchmaker, his soulmate from Japan, a world renowned artist, a new movement that does everything from the crown and is more efficient is what I call horology… Jim
