C, B, D, A

Although my mother always told me, " if you don't have anything nice to say, then come sit over here by me...." Oh, wait, wrong bit of advice.

The EOT DR is interesting for its set of complications and its finish, especially the indication of the number of days in the current month at 2 o'clock, so that is why I rank it first.  But if EOT is what you want, I much prefer the stunningly simple and beautiful EOT that GP launched this year.

The JLC is lovely, but there is a LONG list of JLC's I would select  before this one (and you already have the one at the top of the list with the MMR), including other tourbillons.  This new line by JLC is beautiful, but it is not the usual interesting stuff I expect from JLC. 

The UN Sonata -- what can I say?  I love the innovations of UN, but their designs often just go overboard for my taste, and the Sonata is a prime example of this, especially in the colored gold.  I love the concept of the Sonata, and always have, but I just cannot imagine wearing it on a regular basis.  The dial, the hands, the case shape, etc. are all too much for me. If I were collecting alarms, I would have to have this one, but otherwise, no

DR is generally not my cup of tea, so A is by far the lowest in the ranking.

All that said, all four are amazing watches, as you no doubt know.  I think, however, that you have much more interesting and beautiful pieces in your already outrageous collection.

Best,
