The overall design is actually good but the execution with yellow gold case and silver-cream dial makes it look like it's for 100 years old people...
The loupe is a joke! Like who care for a simple silicon escapement? I really like new tech and its fine to get the eyes focus on those but only if they do it in a manner like Ulysse Nardin, De Bethune or even like Patek with the 5550P.
