There is nothing to report on the 2009 edition of the Excellence
Platine right now. VC focused its attention on the expansion of the
Patrimony Traditionnelle line and some high jewelry pieces at SIHH last
month. I would expect an announcement about the next edition of the EP
later in the year. They also separated thier SIHH novelties from the EP
release in 2008.
As for what to expect I have not heard any rumors. A pocket watch such as you describe would be lovely.
