I love chronographs and understand the preference true aficionados have for complications as examples of the watchmakers art
At the same time I scratch my head when I read comments condemning the seeming ignorance of hoards of buyers willing to pay more for simple design than for complications. It's their money and a lot of us benefit from it.

I know that watch. Govberg couldn’t sell it for 100k for what seemed like years lol
