Vacheron Constantin's impressive Maître Cabinotier Retrograde Armillary Tourbillon
For those who may have missed the press release in News Central, please check it out here:
On the technical side, I'm happy to see Vacheron Constantin starting to employ advanced materials in its movement (silicon for the escape wheel and lever) and wonder if the brand will continue to broaden the applications for such materials in the future and in more conventional movements.
In terms of the aesthetics, I am not as keen. While the mechanism controlling the double retrograding time display is fascinating, I'd rather it be hidden behind a more traditional dial (while still leaving a view of the armillary tourbillon).
What do you like (or dislike) about this watch?

big and tall and and not available to anyone other than its owner
why no discussion of the steel QDI. I am quite interested in that!. the above is technical and awesome, but not for mortals.
You mean something like this?
Not my watch. Photo courtesy Respo This is a watch for mortals. Also a very nice entry to the Vacheron world Best Joe ...
