Dead Right
The Dead Seconds is the only tourbillon I'd consider wearing everyday. Aside from the technical merits of having the first remontoir in a wristwatch and the addition of a dead seconds its a impressively great looking watch. Dress it up, dress it down.. doesn't matter. It incredibly easy to wear, comfortable and fun. You never will feel out of place. If I had a nickle for everyone who told me they sold their 5970 only to swap into a Journe... well let's say I'd have an extra Resonance or two. Seriously, no disrespect to PP (which I do admire) but the Dead Seconds is a keeper. Still not sure.. well for me.. in that brief moment when I was deciding the room was silent, thoughts racing through my mind.. should I or shouldn't I.. and then.. breaking the silence was that wonderful click of the Dead Seconds. At that point I knew.. owning it.. wearing it.. would be Dead Right.

I completely agree with your comment about RM and Journe being complimentary products/brands. From my strictly limited technical knowledge about the Resonance, the crown has to be positioned at a point where the two movements meet because (I assume) you a...

....I suppose if you turned the whole movement thru 45 degrees, you could (in theory) position the winding crown in its usual location? This is beginning to sound like the academic ramblings of a nut anyway, it's not likely to ever happen.

The Resonance, truly, is beautiful watch with both its movement and dial. The crown used to reset the seconds hands is at 4:00 while the crown used to wind and set time is at 12:00. When winding, I found the easiest way to do so was to hold the watch upsi...
