Piaget have been positioning themselves as masters of thin calibers, but they just lost the world record for world's thinnest tourbillon, to Arnold & Son:

The movement is 2.97mm, more than 1/2mm thinner than Piaget. I suspect that Arnold didn't produce it themselves, but in typical fashion they won't ever reveal who actually produced it.

The tourbie is nice but beyond my dreams.

Love the TB88 Inside Out. 46mm, skeleton, dead beat seconds, lucky "88" in the name, AND available in stainless steel! Wonder what the price would be...

That is a really good looking piece. Simple yet very elegant and impressive in its thinness.
