I think the movement looks beautiful. It's just the front I don't like.

even more out of realistic reach than most other dream watches, but wonderful: video: http://youtu.be/YaFVLQkXpyo blah & pics: http://www.watchonista.com/2914/watchon ... perlatives "660 components including the hands, 242 functional rubies, 59 minutes hands and 59 blade springs carved from a single piece of steel, 11 Triangular shaped hours..." |

Incredible watch-making, but I actually don't overly like the look of it (well, not from the front at least). |

Unusual, which is hardly surprising. I like it a lot more than some of the others, and think it's a really good size, but would take some getting used to. No doubt an incredible feat of engineering. Great movement shot. |

I'm a big HW Opus series fan. They always come out with something cool every series and this one is no disappointment, but compared to last year's 12, can't say if I like this one more. |
