In 500 years it will still be a respected example of an extinct method of construction.

A true work of the watchmakers art.

I'm surely not in the market for this watch.. Is it really 2.6 million?!

However that doesn't mean i can't afford an opinion :)

My opinion is wow that seems overly complex for a watch... I mean... its really cool and the craftsmanship it goes without saying is top notch...Also it appears to do a ton of things that may or may not be useful.. but the chimes... who the hell would want that.. they seem like they would be annoying to basically everyone... I can imagine being out to dinner and hearing some dudes watch chime as it turns the hour.. The same as a cell phone ringing to me..

I suppose one could liken them to a loud ferrari or lambo.. as a punch to the face and follow up "LOOK AT ME!"

I have PP too, only it's smaller, doesn't tell time, and shrinks when cold or afraid.

With everything custom machined, i can believe the cost. Quality machine work is very expensive. I'm quality control at a machine shop. I love machining metals.
