What do you think of the CODE41 X41? There are quite a few interesting features, like the peripheral rotor and the date function.

I like some of the design features namely as you mentioned the Rotor not covering the movement and clear date discs.
I like that a lot.
The price is outstanding for what they are IMHO.
Not 100% sure though re design. Reminds me of a Hublot hommage more than an independent design effort?

I like that. This build video is worth a look:

oooh I like that.
More watches need peripheral rotors, makes the view rear view a lot more appeal.

I cannot tell what the base movement is. All I can see is in-house and swiss made etc. I cannot believe this is a new movement?
It is a ETA 2824-2 if you want to pay for swiss or miyota if you do not.Quote:

Looked at these a few times, I like very much what they are doing, they've given a LOT of thought to pretty much everything, right down to details like this:Quote:

Not too many micros combine professionalism with honesty - right down to sourcing. Pricing seems very fair, too. Would very much like to see one in the metal.
X41 looks amazing but any future batches will be over £5k so I'd need to think long and hard as for a couple k more you get into the higher end Ming stuff with amazing movements

How would this work if they shut up shop and moved away? How would you find them?Quote:

I like the rotor idea, but not the skeleton dial. I think they just look messy.
I'm not a fan of skeleton's but appreciate them as a dial option. I was hoping to see a regular dial amongst the selection.
