I think they often disrupt a dial. The hole cut into the dial works best when it is an organic part of the design. Breguet, for example, may pair the tourbillon with a sub-dial to give symmetry and visual context, such as in the classic 3350 or in a tourbillon chronograph, where the chrono subdials serve the same inclusive function.

Trying another on in the boutique. Here, the power reserve serves the function of visually bringing the tourbillon into the design of the dial.

I am not a fan of tourbillons, but here, I would gladly make an exception. White, Blue, White or Blue? For me, here, the White, which I find less spectacular but more subtle. You? Best, Nicolas ...  

Difficult choice! I would go with white as well...

Now, I did not know you are not a fan of tourbillon Nicolas! May I ask why?

Pics of mine to share The blue enamel dial has wave guilloche which makes it more eye catching for a marine theme watch and the rubber strap goes very well with a 100m water resistance watch The white is nice too with a milky feel on the dial. Cheers Robi...  

Thank you my friend

You are way too modest.

Favorite weekend watch......

It originally came with black leather strap, I changed it to UN blue rubber strap to match my jeans. It wears so comfortably soft, like butter ...  

Lucky you Jimmy. Enjoy.
