And I am pretty sure some will ask a photo of the front side...
Best,

Nice comparison
By: TeutonicCarFan : January 13th, 2024-02:22
I've always felt this way, minerva finishing exceeds PP and VC here (not that finishing is the most important). Lange really seems to be the only mainstream in comparison besides the ultra niche (which mb minverva from villeret may be considered based on ...

Beautiful!

Is that rose gold in place of German silver?

Yep!

Hmmmmmmmm

Exactly!

Agreed. I'm not crazy about bronze.

Give me steel. Nothing wrong with steel! I don't need gold or platinum. They're nice. But you know me, I care about internal beauty more than external beauty!
Stunning movement!

Btw, purely from the beauty point of view how do you rank this one vs. it's split-sec brother? Thanks. Semyon.
Module is the key word

I still ask myself if this really works that accurate...
In my experience it works flawlessly.

My impression is that every rattrapante is "a module", including the high end ones from Lange, Patek or Journe. There are various tricks to make the movement slimmer but they can compromise performance.
not at all

but it integrated
Love, love this one!

I actually like the white one they just released, with the minerva arrow on the dial. My only hang up is the collective horology branding. Not sure my thoughts here
Is there any branding on that watch?
By: Jaseewasee : January 13th, 2024-16:26
I will say, I recently met one of the founders of Collective Horology, and after taking with him I came away very impressed by what they’re doing and their business philosophy. Truly a great guy. I’ve got an appointment to look at some of the watches they...
Very minimal p.05 on back
By: TeutonicCarFan : January 13th, 2024-16:40
I believe their 5th collaboration piece? Not sure I don't follow much. I'd buy a WPS edition because this is a community I'm a part of. CH I don't know. NYC boutique had one available, they tried to tempt me🤣 I just don't want all the same calibers in my ...
Agreed!
