So many features yet I don't think it looks any more busy than many chrono with moonphase dials. That is certainly dreamworthy :shock:

Impressive watch though! :thumbup:
Definitely the smartest comment I've read for a while. Lovely VC and a bewildering array of complications :shock:

I was loving everything about including the size, until I saw the word "million" in the price box.

At that point, I wept like a small child and went back to the g shock.

That vc really appeals if only for the sheer technical brilliance of all those complications. Haven't looked at the price but bet it's gazillions!

Got a thing for a Planet Ocean just now, but I have a number of divers already. Keep seeing others and wondering what to do

Damn, that's nice. It's like a panda (double panda?) version of your Speedy, even the lug shape is quite reminiscent of it.

Edit: Looking at it again, it's not a transplant into an early dot-over-90 case is it? :wink:

As you know Sir, that's my definition of pretty much the ultimate 8500 PO. Hope you get it!

Does that mean it's $5000 just for the bezel

If you let it stop, it would take forever to set all those complications.
Sure you could keep it on a winder, but causing thousands of francs damage every week in wear.

Not worth the hassle.
