The "real world" pictures look great. Lot of value in that watch. Very nice indeed! :thumbsup:

Thats a very nice watch. I've always been into Carl F. Bucherer, they really make some sweet pieces and amazingly enough they're pretty unknown to the average public. Is it just me or the fact I haven't had my coffee yet, but isn't the dial just a tad too busy?

Its hard to get time, chrono with minutes, hour totalizers, moon, year, month, day and running second hand on 4 dials. Most people who have perpetual calendar chronos who looked at it actually remarked how much more readable it was.

Ive never heard someone say that they don't like the way a movement is decorated. That's a pretty dumb comment actually. If you're buying a watch for movement decoration I'm sure you wouldn't have your Avenger then.

I think the watch looks awesome as is!!

Yes but my avenger dident cost 22k... I'm just saying for that money I Wouldn't expect to see the same movement decoration found in a lower priced watch like a oris or tag. I love my movements as I think it completes the over all design of a watch, and sadly it would completely sway my decision on a watch like that. I fail to see how my comment was dumb... You just didn't understand what I ment.
