Maybe a batman 6694 re-issue 😉?

Your posts got me obsessed with that model and I continue to look for a good well-loved example (over the years my philosophy has changed as I found that I am pulled to older rather than newer releases).
Unfortunately, I doubt VC’s management and trajectory would consider this approach or re-visit the CR line with a view to reviving some of the greatest historical hits as their focus seems to cater to more ‘modern’ trends and their cabinotoirs options are very limiting unless you want to really put in significant capital. Of course they are a business and our tastes (mine at least) are definitely not reflective of the wider watch buying or influencer market. Not to say there is anything wrong with what they are doing as catering to trends allows for amazing pieces in the metiers collection, the CdV (I think its an outlier that surprised them with how popular it became), or the (pricy but) awesome twin beat. That said, I hope I am absolutely wrong and that they introduce something outstanding in the CR line without making it obscenely pricier than it should be.
The THL was a great place and you hit the nail on the head re why it was so special. Fortunately we have this forum and other avenues that allow us all to focus on the passion, challenge each other, and look beyond the hype!
Hope you continue to be well and safe my friend.
Kind regards,
Walid
