Superb article and beautiful insight into the world of tailor made work of art.
Thank you for the beautiful explanations and photographs. I found the choice of world cities in the back, very clever as it becomes completely integrated with the spirit of this watch.
Bravo and compliments to Mr Konstantin Chaykin.
Kind regards
