Key Points from the Discussion

The white gold 1815 is favored over the pink gold/blue dial combination, which is described as intriguing but potentially 'odd,' suggesting a need for in-person comparison.
The decision to use Honeygold for the Odysseus is appreciated for making it special without being ostentatious, aligning with Mr. Schmid's stated intent, though the brown dial pairing might not suit all personal tastes.
The Saxonia Minute Repeater Perpetual is universally admired, with its complexity and execution speaking for itself.
The Roman numerals on the Saxonia Minute Repeater Perpetual might make the dial appear busy, potentially resembling the Langematik Perpetual, and indices could have offered a cleaner aesthetic.
The 34mm size of the new 1815 is considered too small by some who prefer larger watches, noting that the 37mm Saxonia Thin was a more ideal size, and questioning the downsizing from previous 38.5mm models.
The Honeygold Odysseus, with its unique hue paired with a brown dial, is considered superb and a strong preference over colored gold bracelet watches.

To me that looks larger than 34mm

Could say it was 36. I definitely like this new ref, great size and colors. Also, I don’t really like colored gold bracelet watches. Just not my thing. I think this honey gold Odysseus is amazing. Honey gold just has the best hue, and paired with brown dial is superb.
