Independents

The 1740 Half-Hunter is flat out tremendious. My "Best of Show" for this year. Great design, surperb finishing and super-light with the movement, not just the case in titanium. The tourbillon at 9 and the convex dial at 3 are coverd by separate small sapp...  

This feels like the definitive version of the 1740. Although the original was beautifully made, impressively engineered, and worthy of its GPHG nomination, objections of similarity to works by established brands were well-grounded and must have grated on ...
