Good to discus such a thing as calibers and complications.
Tourbillon is a kind of a holy subject under watchfreaks. To be onnest, a tourbillon is expensive. Do you need a tourbillon? My answere is, if you adore tourbillon watches, the only thing is get it.

There is a beauty of certain skills being left exclusive and special...
like why people appreciate Picasso’s Art or Artists with special talents. I can see why Mr Stern prefers “grand complication” should be left to the specialty of a Master but I also understand there is a need to pass down a skill which may be extinct. If s...

That’s my point too, Tourbillon or complication...
Is a “holy grail” item to me. Then again, different levels and finishing and quality will have their own market segment.
