As an aside I suppose you could say that the 4000M deep seas are a little bit unnecessary? Unless the seals last far longer at normal depths? |

I'd rather see a Rolex perpetual calendar. They're already this close with the SkyDweller. Perhaps a SkyDweller Perpetual?
Or better yet, some time in the future, ability to crank in a perpetual calendar complications into the Day-Date without messing up its dial. |

We can't criticize Tourbillions and say they are pointless and wear mechanical watches in the first place. That's not the point at all. It's about romance.
I don't hear people say the vertical column wheel in a Daytona is pointless and should just have a cam ... All of this stuff is completely over engineered for tiny details that make our hearts skip.

Don't like it. Rolexes are made to be tough and durable, which is the opposite of a tourbillon.
As an aside, I am seriously considering getting a Chinese double tourbillon for $125. Just for laughs.

True. But my watch is flat at night. feel free to spend the money on a tourbillon and post pics. I have told my watch dealers if I ever try to buy one, they are allowed to hit me in the head. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
