Independents

My favorite

 

is the Antiqua, but I fear people are getting the impression that I own all these VHs. I WISH! smile

The Classic in the photo is mine, but the others were pieces Vianney brought with him during an indie watchmaker tour last year (written up here as Tim Jackson's Watch History in the Making II and the GTG in LA that followed). The HTO (which I mistakenly called the VHO) in the picture is the watch Vianney wears daily, or did at that time.

The Janvier No. 1 is a limited edition of 12 pieces named for Vianney's hero, Antide Janvier. The watch has the same case shape as the Classic, but it's 40mm instead of 36 and wears very large on the wrist due to the lugs. The way it displays the phase of the moon is awesome, and the gold sun hand shows the equation of time. The view through the display back is no less impressive.

Cheers,
Dom

where never was much talk about. I have never seen the watch in the flesh and would love to see a wristshot. From what I understood; the entire movement was especially made for this model. Geo

As you wish...

Geo.. here is a quick wrist shot I took over the weekend-- my apology for a poor photo quality. You have to see and feel this beauty in the flesh. No pictures can do it justice. Vianney is amazing. Cheers. Teetann...

My Classic And here it is with some of its siblings. (The Classic in this shot is the same one that's on my wrist in the shot above.) The VHO on the left is the prototype that Vianney himself wears. And a few close-ups just for fun.... The Trio from its b...
