    Okay, I’m about half way through the video. Sadly I’m going to need to watch it a few times. Every time you pass over the Breguet or stop over the dial I lose my train of thought. Such a beautiful watch! I love being able to see the inside of Watches more than a face. The inside is so well made on some of these that it’s a shame to cover it up. This one though is just amazing. I wish I could sketch better. Every wall in my house would have some sort of watch related drawing.
