Very nice theme, like to play.
Some of the classics of the future, crystal balling and time traveling all at once - and my thinking as to why:
1/ VC CdV
because of his beauty as “reasonably sized” manual wind chrono:

2/ VC Traditionelle
Traditionelle “Art de la grande horlogerie”, modern realization of a very classical watch. Born as cult classic?
3/ Rolex DS SD 43 anniversary
The red writing … the red writing ✍️
4/ Blancpain Tribute to Milspec
Classic size, Rothko-like feature totally unnecessary (now that the watches are really water-tight) and therefore totally indispensable.
Wishing everyone a great weekend!
Cheers,
Jerome
