Vacheron Constantin

Alex would you comment on this?

 

Greeting,

A knowledgeable moderator on another forum, notoriously known for his sarcastic comments and sharp wit has made harsh comments about the new Vacheron Constantin Tour de L'ile. If you read these comments beyond the overwhelming sarcasm and mockery, you will notice that he made a few judicious observations. Namely, the positions of the day/date indicators and the tourbillon on the dials are illogical due to the fact that the watch can not be worn on both dials (impossible due to the shape of the lugs).
It seems that the tourbillon should be on the back dial while valuable information such as the Day of the week, date should be on the front dial.

It seems strange that indicators needed only when setting or adjusting the watch such as the power reserve indicator, the Tourbillon, and the 24h indicator are on the front dial while useful information such as the date are hidden on the other side.

Would you mind giving us your opinion?

Cheers
Bruno
