I think this virgin is the best virgin of this watch.

Absolutely. I like this watch with a 24 hour dial; and this one is so much more legible than the digital virgin from a couple years ago. The blue print is a nice touch. It could be improved with a different color for the dial. But a terrific virgin.

I also prefer it to the "gasmeter" . Do you prefer the 24 to the original symmetric?
This is the final version

announced end of 2018 and only produced throughout 2019. there is no other last version or limited edition. Only with blue print. the black print was on the previous 12h/12h dial. thanks for chiming in.
not LE

This is not a limited edition - it is the 2019 edition. There is no version with black print.
I wasn’t suggesting that this was a limited edition...

but thought it was running alongside the regular black printed ones which ABTW, and others, had chosen to use images of as part of their reporting. Even his own website still shows that version... is it any wonder there’s the potential for confusion?!
there's no LE, period

The point is that there is no limited edition of this Resonance version - so there is no comparison with the accusations you make in your OP. This was never promised as a LE, either in official documentation or to buyers. There is only a 2019 edition, ref...

there was never any suggestion that this version was a LE, so please stop reading between the bloody lines! If you’re lacking the mental capacity to comprehend what I wrote, then just say so, and I’ll spell it out for you, so that it’s crystal clear. Now,...

In your OP, you accused FPJ of doing something similar to releasing a limited edition and then breaking the 'limited edition promise'. There is no reading between the lines. At this point it should be abundantly clear, even to you, that: 1) There was neve...
Not a fan of this one, I think I’ve stated that here before.

The blue doesn’t work for me. The 24hr doesn’t work either, too close not to be the same. The previous “Parking Meter” dial, which I know wasn’t widely appreciated, at least was showing something completely different. And, wasn’t FP always adamant that th...
Ill see what I can do, Jay.

I was a bit surprised also. So far - I only see that they have they have tested a hairspring in a CB.

agree
By: avseg : May 30th, 2019-12:21
Honestly, I think it's the best part of the watch. Even more stunning in person also IMO.
I have seen this version in metal...

and I would say that it is really attractive on the wrist. It is more contemporary than the early version. I would choose gold dial for the early version and gray or black dial for this final version.
I really like it!
By: NML77 : May 27th, 2019-15:55
To me it looks incredible in person. It is a tough choice between this and the original layout but I find the 24 hour dial to be more useful.
That’s it. There are different ways to approach this watch

For me, it’s about the concept of Resonance that is the important attraction of this beauty. I feel that is emphasized in the symmetry. Besides, If I was someone traveling a lot outside my local time, perhaps that would be my focus of attention.
Really beautiful...

and a nice swan song for Resonance. But I still prefer my 1st version: Cheers, Goh ...
Very nice send off
By: colton_d : May 28th, 2019-08:47
I would pursue it if I were looking to complete a set of the Resonance generations, however would opt for the original if it were to be my only foray into the Resonance family. This is a very nice sendoff for the movement, and find the blue font to be par...
Agree it was perfect
By: ChristianDK : June 4th, 2019-14:29
I guess it was tempting to play with the concept just for variations sake and just pumping these out year after year. I think the “ gas meter” has a charming quirkiness even though I have a difficult time reading it. Thanks for chiming in
