Wouldn’t be the first to do something because they can. But....
...the backstory is the inspiration came from a 19th century pendulum clock gifted to Felix by his father. The clock was made by Gustave Sandoz for the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago. It had a regulator style dial which instead of time showed the distance of the Earths rotation at the equator. The pendulum, which was extra long, beats every 2.16 seconds and so each oscillation was 1 KM. The main dial had a scale of 10,000 KM broken into 100 KM units and so each tick (half an oscillation) indicates 500 meters travelled on the earths surface.
That’s the story apparently.
Interesting.
Ignoring the added “complications” as they are not something g remotely interesting to me, the watch looks pretty good. I’d wonder, with a more traditional case shape how it wears though. Urwerk, I’ve discovered and as you know, wears reasonably well on s...
Martin is in NYC right now but I didn’t make the event. I have a buddy who did so hopefully he snapped a live shot.
My gut says it’ll wear big though, bigger than our 103/105 cousins.
I do like the design . Its a bit wider then our 103 but also thinner so it wears nice on the wrist imho .
Not sure if i would buy one now as there are a few other models from the brand that i like too .
I really like the price, seems like a pretty good buy even with..
The two useless complications. They are a novelty, but think they remind you to keep your eye on the big picture as things are moving very fast even when we don't see it. Jury is still out on the case but think it is something a lot of independents do fro...
I saw some wrist shots and as you said
Jury still out and one has to try to better judge Can you pm me the price Thanks
Saw images on another site, but not a price. Why have those two "useless"....
Complications except that they can?

Liking the matte black version
The wrist shots on their website seem to show the case design as far from ‘traditional’ I think this will give a more wearable option for those challenged by the earlier designs.
