There are a few stand-outs that merit discussion.

A.Lange & Sohne - Perpetual Lange 1 : Clean layout leveraging the beauty of an iconic design. A solidly built automatic caliber that is based on the Daymatic. Peripheral indiction for the month, coupled with the trademark outsized date and the retrograde date is a design delight. Topped by a price that screams value! and limited to 150 pieces as well.
Vacheron Traditionelle Double-Split Platine : Classic construction of a difficult-to-achieve chrono complication. The double split automatic caliber 3500, with its interesting peripheral rotor offers an un-interrupted view of the movement in all its beauty and places the offering high up the horological ladder. The dial is nicely balanced and enhanced by the combination of silvered and blued hands in the sub-registers. The sad part though is that it is limited to 15 pieces and then that " price-on-request"
Chopard LUC Quattro Spirit 25 : A breath of fresh air. Jumping Hour display on a grand-feu enamel dial; Caliber driven by 4 barrels to produce an 8-day power reserve. Limited to 100 pieces.
MB&F LMX : Seriously polarising design-wise; but technically brilliant ( the watch was released ahead of W&W though)
And the rest.. were a mixture of re-casing in metals, change of dial colors ; and a few bracelet combos - Forgettable at best.
