Independents

The center miniature painting of the continents cloaked in opaque blue enamel and elevated by intense specks of enamelled gold is truly beautiful.



However, I have to be honest: I'm not fond of the two apertures: date at 3 o'clock and second time zone at 9 o'clock.



Also at 12.64 mm the case isn't thin.



Here’s a view of the two pushers on the left side of the watch allowing the local hour hand to jump forward or backward in one-hour increments.



The micro-rotor Calibre LF230.02 is beautiful, with its guilloché rotor.





So, this watch is nice and I can easily understand anyone who feels attracted to it.



But it's definitely not a watch for me: I much prefer the simplicity and purity of the regular Micro-rotor or of the Tourbillon Double-Spiral. 



But how do you personally feel about this timepiece ?
