Not my kind of watch because I'm not into openwork design, but how do you feel about it?

Wow!!!
What a dial and movement, how much does this goes these days? Nice one though 👍🏻
You're preaching to the choir:
it's a flaw that I consider (maybe wrongly of course) more or less inherent to the openwork aesthetic, which almost always relegates the time display to secondary importance. There are exceptions, of course, and some executions are better than others, but...
Am a big Bovet fan, like super Bovet fan so am super happy they are continuing the flamboyant trend lol
Infact, my first instinct was there was too little and it was too simple lol like it needs more handicrafts!
Some have said too much is going on in too little space
and you think more handicrafts are needed! This is a great example of the diversity of our expectations and impressions! Maybe you will feel fulfilled when seeing the watch in person. Best, Emmanuel
So true! Diversity makes it fun!
and allows for so many new and cool products! altho am sad that watches are getting simplier lol, like the new Bexei ones are very simple and i loved his previous work but we shall see!
I'm not familiar with Becsei watches: still a continent to discover for me!
As you say, let's wait and see what comes next.
Previous reactions have been rather mixed
so I’m glad you like it, even if it’s not my personal kind of watch! Best, Emmanuel
A lot of bovet is not my aesthetic with their unique case
But this one has a different look I like. Overall I’d pursue something with better finishing at that price. Nice to have options for sure.
They’ve started modernizing their aesthetic
with the Recital 30. But I agree that the finishing could be better.
I guess it’s a bit too flamboyant for myself…
And since no longer living in the large country these are not that ubiquitous that it’s easy to see one live. I do applaud the freshness of the strap, though 😊👍🏻👌🏻
Not my type of watch either,
but they’ve made some interesting improvements to the World Time complication (not with this watch of course) and they’ve also evolved aesthetically towards a less baroque style.
