The only complication that motivated yours truly . . .

. . . is the perpetual calendar. So much, though, that I acquired four.
Tracking the movement of the Earth around the Sun mechanically in a device compact enough to be worn on one's wrist . . . simply sublime, as Nicolas would say. For years these were my favorite watches.
Then I was laid off. After a few years of not having to hew to a schedule, the meaning of the complication dissipated. My rising interest in chronometry coincided with a decline for complications, especially perpetuals.
All are now gone; fortunately two went to a friend, so I still get to see them occasionally. Adore them, but no longer have an interest in owning one.
