Not only to consider this piece, but to say no when it's not right for you! Well done. Also, this is beautiful, those subtle blue hands and that sundial! Now looking at the normal one isn't the same!

And with a 1st series J + a Platinum version you are well covered for sure !

The leap year numbers are in same orientation of the 24 hours numbers, which I find it is much more harmonious

The pinnacle of horology. There is no better watch IMO.
