I expect he was trying to be a cross between Jean-Claude Biver and Thierry Nataf. But I do enjoy my C1 Big Date and my C1 Chronograph, for neither of which I paid enough to earn a square meal at the Moscow Oligarch Club (assuming such existed). It's certainly a different aesthetic than the Impresario!
But the Concord I wear most is this modest Mariner Diver from a decade or so ago. 40mm, 10mm thin and 200m water resistant. Plus, it must be admitted, a strong Genta influence.
