I don't agree about applied indices. The base is the 1016 and not the 14270. I prefer it as it is.
What is it they call it these days? Colourways?!
This is the Colourways of Colourways. This watch is going to make history.
Isn't the WTB open for you?

Lack of lume is the bane of dress watches. Also dauphine hands and lume don't particularly mix well. How about TailLight? Mondaine call it BackLight but that is not...
A pocket watch with the sub-secs at 3? Very unlikely. Can we have a picture of the movement please?
A gorgeous thing by the way.
Cartier are up there with the best of them in every way. Not only horologically, but also in terms of prestige and history. In our "branded" culture, Cartier is a good brand to have.
There must be a point where it stops being a watch and now it is something else.
Spring drive are way too expensive to be useful in any way. The only one I have ever seen used was the Spacewalk that was carried by some rich bloke on his round trip to the International Space...

There are cultures that like to show off and play one one-upmanship/one-upwomanship. Especially towards the East, and they will keep the industry going for many decades to come. They most definitely...
The word I would use is "hybrid". Half machine and half electrics. I would describe it as an electronically (as in quartz) controlled mechanism. Yes it was fancy 20 years ago. Now it is just...
Interesting dial surface. Works well with all the shapes. It could have done without the TREASURE SEEKER on the dial.
That looks fantastic, well made and crisp. I always loved watches with two crowns. The colour combo is nice too.
Christopher Ward isn't really in the clique of Swiss manufacturers. Not yet. Not by a mile. And what are mark-ups anyway? Some of these items coming out Switzerland, even at below Ł10K, are actual...

Kinetics also have rotors, but they are not classed as automatics. Seiko had tried for years to ""hide"" the quartz element of spring drive... as people wouldn't pay the asking money for quartz....
It just shows that the choice of good crystals is better than thermo-compensation.
It never fails to surprise me that people can still be thinking that the spring drive is anything but a quartz.
Yes. Seiko make their own crystals and the best (pre-aged and more stable) are put in the spring drives. It doesn't matter if Seiko or Grand Seiko. The spring drive have their own niche in terms of...

It looks like it is going to be soon anyway. In less than a month.
In the long term, the Everest will always be more popular than the Navigator. Who ever heard of the Mk11 outside enthusiast circles?
No, he just needs a solid date. Shall we let him have it?
