Thanks :-)....I know that.
I'm just responding to this particular watch......
I'm looking forward to see his other dial (darker colored versions) and also I somehow prefer the numerals on the Observatoire.
However, I think this is quite a magical piece.
My only concern is still the size which I'm eagerly wanting to try this on my wrist.

First scans of Kari Voutilainen's new Twenty 8
So here it is! The new Kari Voutilainen inhouse manufacture movement called the 28 (the watch is the Twenty 8) as the work on the caliber started in 2008. I had posted some photos of the prototype movement and dials here: ahci.watchprosite.com The esapeme...
I am very intrigued!
I got an email from Kari, too. Looks very promising and looking forward to hearing the progress. Ken
Beautiful. Thanks for sharing
Another lovely looking watch from Kari, and a new escapement as well. I'm immediately wondering just how these two escape wheels are driven - -the details are hidden below the plate under the balance. At first glance it looks a somewhat like the independe...
Best dial yet
IMHO, this is the most attractive of all the dials that KH has produced so far. Would love to hear the theory/execution behind the new escapement, along with technical details and expected advantages over a Swiss lever. Tom
Not too crazy about the dial but....
the overall package can be described in 2 words....YUM YUM Kari said this is limited production not editions, I like that Well done Kari. *CL
@Cl
The dial Can be made to your specifications with different patterns and numerals, as he has a guy doing the engine turning of the dial - hope this helps Christian

I think the same re numerals CL
Prefer the numerals on the Observatoire but love the guilloche on this. Without the double rings the dial look cleaner and more elegant to me (not that the dial on the Observatoire is any less stunning).
this looks like a winner
the dial work is amazing, the movement i cannot understand..yet, but looks as well finished as one can expect. will these watches be chronomtery tested? best, Horo
Outstanding, unique, mesmerising...
thanks Alex for this promising introduction. It seems like double impulse escapements receive some attention recently... Cheers, Magnus
Beautiful balance wheel bridge - akin tourby bridge
I like big balance wheel as well. Regards Ling
Magnificent!
A beautiful dial and case to my old fashioned taste with modern horological advancement in a size I might actually be able to wear. I may have to put off redecorating the kitchen.... Ginger
Thanks Alex, I continue to
be sort of indifferent about Kari's Observatoire... I don't know why... but this new movement doesn't er... move me... but this stuff is so subjective... and irrational... congratulations to Kari.
And the order is made
Now waiting painfully for it to finish. Will be my second Kari. Tick tock tick tock.........
Very very interesting...
Keen to see this at Basel... would be nice to discuss the escape setup with Kari.
