I thought the same way!
Initially, I thought it looked like a person making a grotesque face. It has really grown on me after handling a few examples from friends. What an iconic watch for sure.
Thanks for sharing!
Some interesting detail on a very interesting watch. The Vianney Halter Antiqua. What I first thought was the ugliest watch I ever saw has now
grown to become one of the more fascinating for me. The details are sublime. Look at the rivets on the crown. The Jules Verne feel of the entire piece. The bright reflective inner bezel. The style of the font. The invisible rotor It’s a harmonious blend o...
Absolutely Fantastic...
... In every way. A perpetual calendar that is very easy to read. Watchmaking brilliance. - Scott
One of my dream watches. Jules Verne inspired!
Along with Trio, beautiful! Thanks for sharing
It's a brilliant watch!
I just sold one this week, in fact. Each time I do, it takes all the willpower I've got not to slip it into my personal box instead. One day I would love to own one in my own collection for sure. Wear it in good health!
Darn cool, Ed!
Your strap and gold case combo is the best-looking VH I've seen yet. Well done. M4
This piece is a classic great from yesteryears.
A must have in any serious collectors but extremely hard to get nowadays. Totally love it.

21 years later, it still looks fresh...
The first and arguably the best Vianney. Genius! This is s watch conceived for a steampunk science fiction universe. This particular watch has served as inspiration for many other brilliantly outrageous watches over the past two decades. Think of the MB&F...
1st time I saw an image of one it was a total head scratcher
but now I totally get it. I think the classic 3 hander is to die for though a little ordinary in comparison to the perpetual. I wonder what else you might have to share with us?
Most probably the watch that defined what creative independent
horology would be! A superb and iconic piece
A true grail watch for me .
Such a iconic watch and design imho . Would love to own one at some point . Great pics btw 👌🏻 thanks for sharing
Still ugly as sin in my eye but beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Never seen on in person so migth change my mind then but dont think so.
This is micro-mechanical horological art.
Created by 2 geniuses, executed by Vianney on rare occasions for savvy collectors of horology. These watches are the blood, sweat & tears of Vianney Halter. Acquiring one, gains a part of Vianney like no other piece. I love his work and am happy to see th...
Very peculiar
It is the kind of watch that only fits in a 'mature' collection. It fits the bill under several aspects, mechanical, aesthetic, finishing but you need to see it and leave it several times to fully appreciate. Saw in the metal just one time, and I'm still ...
You are crazy to love this watch but...
...you are not alone 😂🤣, let me join you in this craziness... ...
Very nice
I just had the privilege of visiting Mr Halter. Very interesting experience. Here demonstrating the Deep Space... ...
