When I saw the pictures from w&w, was hooked on the new overseas retrograde: The combination of function (retrograde, which is very “classical” horology) and the sporty form of an overseas was unique and excited me.
Eve the quirky side of the dial with the uneven length of its indices or the lack of second couldn’t distract me.
Keeping my fingers crossed. Maybe sooner or later?

Have already manual wound chrono so I went for something more 70’s Funnily enough a beautiful E-type was driving by when I went to the boutique. What a great wristshot it would habe been with that background ! ...

Correct, had called the boutique last year but wasn’t holding my breath too much since I understand that the production of the 222 is rather very limited. Was quite surprised when it finally worked out … and quite happy to say the least. Great service fro...

I like that one - not sure whether it has been discontinued tho? Good luck in your hunt! Jerome

How sad! For me! Can't wait to see your reveal though!
