Gronefeld Principia Automatic. Some pictures and thoughts.

Among all the Gronefeld Principia Automatic, this is the one, in steel, with this salmon / copper dial which is my favorite. I am not a fan of automatic movements, as I find them, most often, less well decorated than a manual winding movement, but there a...
Def a great watch from two amazing brothers .

... but I believe I share the point of view of Jurry and ZSHSZ the eight seconds complication is so original and the main innovation of this watch and not a gimmick. As for the āholeā in the dial it doesnāt disturb me at all on the contrary. I would have ...

I'm pretty confident. I will meet the brothers on October 24th.
I will be there as well.

How much is home made and how much is outsourced, made by others and bought in? Much of the appeal of independants is, well at least for me, the fact that they are independent. z'
