This is next level watchmaking in every aspect from the subtle complication, to the balance wheel passing by the dial. Speaking of the dial, is it engraved and then enameled? I have only seen a couple similarly stunning work come out from the Atelier Blandenier.
Good video. Thank, Bill. In terms of the balance wheel, you said a big balance wheel is more stable. What is the minimum diameter to be considered as big?
It's just the physics of the size of a balance wheel Eugene. Larger wheels have greater inertia that is less interrupted by outside forces. This almost always means lower oscillation frequency. Take care, Billl
Beautiful watch. By the way, I was watching your videos, and in one of them, you said that you don't like Breitling. This brand is considered traditional with high-quality pieces. Please, explain your views in a few lines. Thanks.
Mucho, what I don't like about Breathing is that they're not very transparent about their movements. They often imply in the name of the caliber that it's an in-house, but for the most part they are an inexpensive substitute. That applies to IWC, Cartier and every other watch company doesn't tell exactly what's in their watches. Take care, Bill
250k is A LOT of money, BUT this is truly an amazing watch. By far the best looking dual time watch I've seen. Can we find the poster or any pictures of it anywhere? I would love to have that watch on my wall
Now that’s real beauty Bill. Thanks to you and your friend for sharing this magnificent watch. I’ll speak with my wife………
Hi Jeffrey, it truly a 'piece unique.' Maybe it could be yours? Take care, Bill
$250k watch, the stratosphere for me, your friend is a lucky man.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks DG B... just as importantly, he's got very good taste and an artistic sense. Take care, Bill
What an amazing piece, Kari Voutilainen is a watchmaking wizard :D
Indeed he is, proof that craftsmanship is still important! Take care, Bill
Wow, i like that one a lot!
It is a rare one to admire O Bud and appreciate! Take care, Bill
Fascinating. Good clip. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it NRS! Take care, Bill
Way beyond my price range, but what a unique piece! Truly an exquisite piece.
Unique indeed! I thought you were a billionaire Javi! 😉 Take care, Bill
True wrist art that you can wear and enjoy hard to beat that.
Dom, that may be a way of describing real craftsmanship-'wrist art.' Take care, Bill
Beyond the realms of affordability, but truly exquisite.
OT, it's out of my budget ... that I can say....but what a watch! Take care, Bill
OMG. This is art.
Yes, very special art Jane. Take care, Bill

This watch lives in a different universe than my budget, FFA. The engraving and what may be a type of Champlevé are superb. Take care, Bill
wow. beautiful
Thank you! Rea! Take care, Bill

Absolutely stunning! The lugs don‘t grab me, but on the strap look fine.
Hi Ced! I like the tear-drop lugs, but you're right, it's not until you get the strap on that they look right. Take care, Bill
Thanks Bill.
My pleasure Asmara! Take care, Bill
great watch
Yes, and over the moon from my budget Andre! Take care, Bill

Pericles, I guess we don't have afford certain watches but we can appreciate them free! Take care, Bill
A real Dreamwatch!
A succinct and accurate description Vincent! Take care, Bill
It's a real beaut
Yes, and one we can appreciate, Andy, even thought not exactly affordable. Take care, Bill
wow another hype watch with prices to the moon!! Surely out of reach for many. Can buy plenty of bitcoin for $250k...
Bespoke is generally not cheap John. Take care, Bill
