Romain Gauthier Prestige

As I knew, and still know, almost nothing about this brand (I have never been particularly attracted so far), I decided to have a closer look.

And I find these Prestige models interesting. I really like the face of the HM (I like a little less the HMS because it's open worked). And the level of finishing of the movement is quite stunning: the sharp angles on the upper bridge are the sharpest and deepest I've seen.

But the architecture of the caliber and the crown on the back (or back winder) gives me mixed feelings.

Best to you all.

I didn’t know at all. So, I’ve had a closer look (as it didn’t pique my interest in the first place) and, predictably and unfortunately, I’m not fond of the design (not attracted to open work dials and the industrial aesthetic of the back is really not fo...  

I keep in mind that I could feel very differently in real life.

I’ve watched a couple of videos and I’m really impressed. My mind and my eyes can see how great it is, but I guess my heart is just attracted elsewhere (at least when looking at photos or videos). Reason why I’ve never paid much attention to brands like R...

Some mind blowing things coming from the maison one in particular is a game changer
