I honestly don't get it.

Paying close to 20k swiss francs for a watch with a not so well finished and not so interesting vaucher movement and a dial which looks worse than what you would find on a 5196P. There are so many better and more insteresting choices for the money: Lange, Breguet, Vacheron, Patek, JLC, AP etc. which would offer superior finishing, a solid brand behind them, better service, better design, an in-house movement and actual heritage. I get how cool independents can be but this seems like the most boring and overpriced independent brand on the market.

7.5 years of delivery period after order is impossible to swallow... ...

Look for something else. Ev consider a vintage PP. they are not expensive in todays market and quality is unbeatable.
Vintage Patek calatravas

are some of the most beautiful watches ever made. They are criminally under appreciated in today's market
Yes, my friend. I wholeheartedly agree

If my wrist wasn’t so big I would spend much more in this department. The watch you are showing is gorgeous. Especially the hands are to die for. Stylistically it also lends heavy from the vintage Patek universe, IMO. Many interesting vintage Patek to cho...

There are a few options in precious metals

You could get a saxonia thin, a jules audemars, a patrimony or a calatrava for a price close to that of this watch. Plus you could get a doctor strange in steel or go for a brand like GO, GP or UN. I don't dislike the watch, it's nice, but way overpriced ...

I ordered mine last year

It will arrive in May or June this year (I had it confirmed just yesterday)and so far I have been offered double the money for it but those who know me will know that I love dress watches and Breguet numerals - offer me triple and I will love Breguet nume...

'Double' is probably mine, so I applaud you for your strength of will!
gorgeous

7.5 years is a bit too much. What if it needs service?
In my opinion
By: Jari from Finland : February 19th, 2022-01:36
after paying nearly half of the price while ordering and the rest of the price when the watch is ready to be shipped when taking into consideration the waiting time seven years is not for everyone. Nothing wrong with the watch itself.
Was two years wait list..

…6 months ago. Not sure what happened here. I hesitated and then decided that it was just overpriced for what it was and too similar to my 5196p. No regrets.
Amazing

It looks amazing, especially with those hands and numerals.
Agreed with all comments

I like the watch a lot but… considering all aspects (delivery time, price…) I would consider other options and go for a beautiful original vintage with a similar design.

1) must say I love that dial, really do. 2) I noticed many state that 7 years wait is ridiculous (and they are right in 99% of all cases) 3) but if you love it enough, then 7 year wait could just as well be worth it
The 7+ years wait list is only very recent
By: xplorer2 : February 19th, 2022-15:48
As earlier mentioned only 6 months back, the wait list for this watch was only around 2 years+ and these guys do not really market their watch much and it flies under the radar pretty much. Even then, word of mouth goes by by watch collectors of the insan...
