An excellent choice

Especially, as i think the Quai de l'Ile line is officially discontinued.
I actually think the steel QdIs were priced very well compared to other VCs and other brands in the same ;price range and lower. By that I mean, I think the steel reference was a very good value -- you would get a lot of watch for a relatively fair price. I think the earlier QdI references in precious metals and titanium were mispriced quite high and that in part led to the struggle the QdI line seemed to face in the marketplace.
The steel reference has a unique case and is finished so well inside and out. I love the rotor on this reference as it is unique to the QdI line,. I would not wish for anything else on this watch. This was, I felt, a brilliant entry level watch for VC until they launched the 56 line, which I think did this model in. That was a sad decision from my perspective. If the QdI wears well on your wrist, and you find one at the right price and the right time, I would jump on it.
Best,
