is it a perfect example of mastery in horology ? Thank you for your opinions.
horses for courses...
It is not one that appeals to my taste. Having said that, it is a very unusual watch. The complication is not one that i see as particularly useful, but then that is not a reason to dislike a watch. Its style has a certain flamboyance that does not appeal...
