Two I have hankered after over a longer period of time than I've had CWs are: Blancpain Fifty fathoms (original) https://monochrome-watches.com/watchtime-wednesday-history-blancpain-fifty-fathoms/ https://k8q7r7a2.stackpathcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Blancpain-Fifty-Fathoms-2.jpg image from a...

I think that the seconds jump on setting is dependant on the movement being fully wound. ISTR that JJ wrote about this in his movement description.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Oh dear.

A bronze watch will discolour (patinate). if you can't live with that, and are not going to keep shining it up, then it's not for you. In practice, how accurate do you need your watch to be?

Richard, you call it a quick review, I prefer concise.
As ever from you, well worth the read and devoid of hype.

Thank you for posting this.

Paul, you devil. That's the best CW ever made. Funny how things go. I bought that in the logo change sale (big % off) Didn't gel with the 38mm so offered it back here for the same price. No takers, so made a profit on ebay with it. I loved the look, just prefer the bigger size. I still haven't got ...
