Not my style but doesn’t look bad. I’m actually surprised they didn’t try to throw more color in there.

Wow. My first thought was the original Overseas tourbillon is quite enviable and hard to beat. Then I checked out the VC website. They have some nice images available of the diamond set, and it almost makes the standard tourbillon look pedestrian. I would need to see it in person to know for sure, but if spending your money, I would spend it on the Overseas tourbillon high jewellery:

Stunner. I love the way they did the bezel with the baguette-cut diamonds! I’d rock it, but it’s out of my league $ wise.

Looks very beautiful, even if not for every occasion …

I'm sure it is impressive in the flesh. I wonder what other dial colors would look like?

I've been very impressed with how the industry has gotten men to become comfortable wearing watches with gems. I'm not one of those men...but it's a good looking piece none the less and i'm sure will be quite a standout in a crowd.

No gems at all, not even on the dial?

I own the "pedestrian" version lol.

The white gold is nice, but I am not a fan of gemset watches, aside from that amazing Yachtmaster with sapphires.
