Girard Perregaux

At a bit more than one month of the Basel Fair and its cortege of novelties, there is one watch I would love to see... A Neotourbillon or a Constant Escapement in... Tantalum. Let's go farther... Tantalum case, of course, but also tantalum bridges! Both o...  

Pls feast our eyes when u r at Basel! Thk you sir! Salute in advance fr yr field report.

I thought I remember u mentioning going SIHH (instead of Basel). Or I mistook u fr someone else. My bad again sir if that is the case.

U guys at this forum do a good job at this event. My alternate source of watch news other than TZ. Tks in advance!

At Vienna Time, it is definitely the Neotourbillon. Generally not enamored with the complication but this watch is something else. Especially in this colour / material combination But only my humble, personal opinion...

The other " big " difference between both of them is the extra 3 mm... Some wrists will feel better with the slightly smaller Neotourbillon, too. Best, and thanks for your feedback, my friend. Nicolas

Was talking raw physical appeal rather than the complexity of the complication

Requires more knowledge to fully appreciate, even aesthetically...

CE for me. Reason: Neo Tourbillon we already have in Rose Gold and Black case and I think that suits all tastes. And there is the bi-axial Tourbi in Tantalum too. The CE however, we only have seen one version (White and Rose Gold) and I would love to see ... 

If I were to opt for a Neo Tourbi, then maybe Black.. - Sighhh.. To many Unreachables ! But dreaming is quite ok, whereby looking at good pics helps.. Sometimes.. ) Best, my friend ! hs

I know, I know... I am a true Bast...o. Best, Nicolas

Great question, my friend! The Bi-Axial Tourbillon in Tantalum is already burning a hole in my brain and would be hard to beat... The CE on the other hand could explore some new grounds! Best Blomman

I wonder what will be ...

Dream.

Then, while trying it, you just see that it fits your wrist quite well. Then, the dial... That is a magic watch. If you have the opportunity, try it! Best, Nicolas
