Quick up date to answer some general PM's I am receiving. First no I didn't ask to see this watch! I have a great relationship with AD was there buying a watch for wife and wrapping up and order on a Panerai 687..I was invited to view the watch...No I did not ask to try it on or would I ask, more than content with chance to see in the flesh...AD offered for me to try on knowing full well this watch is WAYYYYY out of my range.....AD did me a big solid it was a privilege to get to experience such a watch. Home you guys like the pics

Always fun when you get to see something you weren't expecting!

Strange layout though. Not shocked it hasn't been sold.

Thanks for sharing. I remember seeing that watch in the magazine but as sophisticated as it is it's not favorite model to me made by the brand

The store has a nice layout...The watch was not on display, it was in the safe. My sales guy went to get the watch I was buying out of the safe and brought this with him because he thought I would appreciate seeing it (he was right!). The case from the photo is by the register so after we looked and talked about the watch for 10 minutes he stuck it in there to finish our transaction.

I meant the dial layout is a bit haphazard but I can see how you thought I was talking about the case

It is a JLC Master Grande Gyrotourbillion in Platinum. I don't know much about these but it looks like mechanical masterpiece.
