Independents

thanks again for taking the time to have all of these wonderful photos. I really love your reviews because of all of the photos you take with the detailed description. best of boths world!

I am in support for these types of watches because I personally believe that watches, especially mechanical watches, have moved away from a functional piece of equipment to more of an art form/artistic form of expression for artist or watchmakers. This is, I think, the way the watch industry is moving forward and how it is still remaining prevalent. As such, inline with this thought, I really like how this artist creates a new form of expression in watchmaking but I do not exactly like it. Just like in the art industry, there are those who find new forms of expression that are more controversial and require a long time of concentration before deciding if one likes it or not (cough cough Mark Rothko/colour field abstract expressionism ,cough cough Robert Rauschenberg) and this is, to me, one of these pieces of art. I personally have always favored a slight twist/combination of old and new styles, like De Bethune, but have generally shied away from very avant garde watches like modern Roger Dubuis, Urwerks, Audemars Piguet (royal oak) etc..  Now for the disclaimer this is all just my personal opinion and it is ........
