And took it with me! A real highlight imo:

Have it for some years now and got it back from service; so like new again! Very accurate and loud and strong sound. The flying and moving tourbillon is fascinating, a „floating“ tourbillon here.

Have a great Sunday!!

I just had the exact same watch in service in Le Sentier and got it back like new after 9 weeks! Very happy! A real marvel

The date was really missing… Wears great! The strap and dial combo is perfect…👌
