Thought these photos looked cool. Perrelet did a nice job with this skeleton dial. The bridges have some very nice finishing. Very few skeleton watches have a few 12 hour chrono and a GMT function. It's not a style for everyone but in person it's quite interesting and eye-catching.

It's 43mm, wears very similar to your XXI and the case is also coined.

I came very close to getting the white dial version on a brown strap. Perrelet has some nice watches that can be had at a reasonable price.

Yes, that was the one that was posted from Govberg.

Really nice pick-up. Good size, too--when I see those complications I automatically think of a Chronoswiss Opus, which is just a little too small at 38mm.

Sorry for multiple posts, wheels turning inside head, dangerous. If my son ever sees one of these, he'll want this in a few years instead of the GMT meant for him.

I like it - looks like one can actually tell the regular time with the blue hands. The four sub dials make it well balanced (in looks), and of course all of the visible machinery is cool.

Nice piece!
