I got my Master Minute Repeater on the 31th of July 2007. In November of the same year, I changed my car and took delivery of an Audi A5 Coupé. With Poy, we decided to give the watch and the car some photo session. The funny thing, which could have been t...

I am so glad the wires help up

Yet another way to feel a huge emotional response to these little machines.

As if the 1000hrs testing done by JLC was not enough I can't imagine how you felt when you realised! Glad you found it where you left it! This is an amazing watch, so rare and what a complication! Best, E.

Superb

so glad the MR escaped unharmed! Best Andreas

Gosh, you are lucky and I bet that’s the last time you ever take photos like that kind setup

An big huge enormous fantastic history with this so big huge enormous fantastic watch.

“You don’t need that many horsepower to run a watch!” And “it’s a manual wind, don’t put it on an automatic winder” Okay, they’re not that funny.

And I don't recall there was a car involved in my dream. So no car neither!
