Indeed very nice!
In particular I like the structured 3D dial. What I would question is the type of font they have used. It is a modern, "forward looking" watch - somehow the font represent the opposit. Probably the wanted to give it also a minimal vintage aspect?

but I am sure (SURE!!!!) that they are working on something new, a true successor. That is, given the innovation in the industry recently, an impressive task to achieve. I have no clue when it will come, but I am sure it will. Even Blancpain has reworked ...
Original and coherent
Thank you Magnus for your review on a really interesting proposal. Let me explain why I find the E.P. T.T. original and coherent. It's original because the package made up of high speed tourbillon + chronograph + titanium case (not DLC coated - hurrah!) +...
I am fully with you, Elio, and you pointed out important issues...
Which makes it much easier for me to understand why I liked this watch. And yes, I share your \'hurrah\' on the coating issue. Magnus
