Let's do a fun poll 😉
Choose between the Czapek Antarctique Rattrapante and the Frozen Star (Osmium dial). Before you make a choice, please see a video and/or photos of an Osmium dial so you know and understand what it is 😉 Which and why ? And for those curious why I am asking...
I prefer the Chronograph
Just me - while the Osmium as a material is a unique point that you will have to explain (ad nauseum) to everyone who sees it, I prefer some evidence of what a watch is "doing" and that one is a beautiful implementation of skeleton architecture and it doe...
I’m a material person
Lets see a few materials. Here we have tantalum, titanium, sedna gold, bronze gold, and silver. I am a sucker for novel materials, and the Osmium dial is a helluva wow for me. Can you believe, i’d pick an osmium dial over a rattaprante. That is superficia...
Osmium
Because it's plain simple. Yep, I've read the magic being the metal, but nearly every dial is better with no date and this one is simply the confirmation. Unless it's a Lange 😅
Knowing you...both!
Honestly need to see them in person. I've looked at these a few times online and the bridge architecture/finishing doesn't quite excite me, but I have determined I'm not as captivated by this modern, dark architecture. I'd say rattrapante because that fit...
Both great watches . But also different imho
The Rattrapante is a bit more sporty than then Osmium dial Czapek imho . Hard to pick a favorite. If i had to choose i would say Rattrapante i think Enter text ...
The Osmium is just other-worldly special and elegantly ’simple’ to allow full appreciation of the dial.
While I appreciate the technical feat of the Rattrapante, at the end of the day you have other similarly, or even more, technically impressive ie the MB&F. But I admit it’s a challenging choice given how different they are.
Rattanpante
I like both and offered both. Would and have selected the original Rattanpante I just prefer skeleton and the complication...
