So Ferrier is the new darling, ay Alex?

Isn't is fascinating... Dufour, then Voutilainen, now Ferrier--'instant' darlings.
I think it is funny how so many great Independents are out there...
Yet it seems that if you make a traditional, very conservative, very classical watch, at a VERY high level of finish and ultra-conservative design...
THEY will come.
There are other darlings... who make unusual designs... but these three, and maybe one or two I am forgetting (?) are like brothers, coming 'a few' years apart...
Well, I should say two brothers and a Father. Who can deny Dufour gave birth?
Perhaps it is not only because they are unfathomably 'emotional' watchmakers... and seemingly unparalleled technicians, too...
But ALSO that THEY DELIVER!
MY avatar now depicts what I think is utterly brilliant watchmaking, but which--it seems, never gets delivered.
What the hell. I 'represent'!
Just an observation.
