Marketing nonsense
Mar 24, 2021,23:46 PM
I love Romaine Gauthier ... I have a logical one. This legacy announcement seems to me like marketing nonsense. I can understand making a whole range a legacy but placing limited editions pieces which sold out a legacy makes no sense to me. Every brand makes limited edition pieces. Maybe they wanted somewhere separate for them on the website but I find the whole thing confusing and unnecessary. Just my thoughts

Today announced the Legacy collection. He has discontinued production of a number of his iconic pieces including the Logical One, Prestige HMS and Prestige HM. Needless to say, I feel very fortunate to have recently acquired a white gold HM, a watch that ...
Very interesting move.

The logical 1 is his most iconic piece; where to next? Congrats on snagging a piece

This is one of the more under rated watches imho, the levels of finishing and when one understands the design of the caliber and why Romain chose these aspects, it's seriously compelling in my world. Well done acquiring this gem. You'll really love it Che...
Thank you, Tim!

After your rose gold one sold, I felt like I couldn't wait much longer. There aren't many of these in the world.
Congrats Coz!

Beautiful time piece

On both sides, I missed an opportunity to get a rose gold one and regretted ...
Sorry I’m confused ....

Is it all the logical one’s or only some metals, limited editions etc? I don’t find it very clear
Are you sure about this discontinuation?

I know there’s a “Logicial Two” in the pipeline for a number of years and I believe he’d said 2021 or maybe 2022 when we’d see it. But right now, I see “Legacy” being the same as what several other manufactures currently do, that is sell used watches. Lik...
Legacy as I understand it

No, this is not (like others) a pre owned opportunity via Romain, it’s a list of models he will no longer make in any form. This includes the HM - of which there were never more than the originally announced 38 in each of the four metal combinations (whit...

Bespoke

i guess if u order a bespoke of version of those watches he will gladly make it as it cost a lot more to make a bespoke version i saw in an article he said that if u want a bespoke version it automatically cost 20 000 more at once and it might cost more d...
I kind of see it as a repository of their past work
By: Cozmopak : March 25th, 2021-07:07
A single page on their website that displays their past collection. I also think they will be retiring other models in the future and those will be archived in their Legacy page. I’m sure there’s a marketing angle, but that’s how I see it
Congrats my friend!!!

I remember handling the watch in London and it was a great watch! subtle yet unique at the same time, a rare combination ...
