Why do you state "the anglage is particularly poor" when you are examining their work from photos? Are you a watchmaker or otherwise involved in the watchmaking world as a fine hand finisher of watch parts ,with which to pass judgement so damning as you consistently do when it comes to AdC ?
I've observed your consistent denigration and decided that it was time to question your motives here? Yes, I realize one's personal taste of finishing styles is often a determining factor as to whether or not a person likes it. To state an opinion and end it with "Caveat emptor" sends a pretty strong message that you don't believe the item in question is honest and worthwhile. If that's your opinion, as it seems to be with regards AdC, my question to you is how & why do you come to this?
As I mentioned previously 10months ago, I have visited their atelier in Barcelona, handled 3 of their early pieces and had a chance to look at them closely with a view to understanding what they are doing and more importantly for me, why create these 1950's styled contemporary watches in an artisanal Independent Watchmaking way. I came away duly impressed and with a sense of their wanting to showcase Moebius Rassman's talent combined with their sense of style and taste. While I can agree it isn't original work per se, in terms of designing a movt. from scratch, there is creative talent in designing their bridge work and certainly the hand finishing is excellent by standards out there in the fine Independent Watchmaking world that I inhabit.
Cheers,
