Edmond Watches

Just bought an Edmond Pole Guardian watch. This is a Swiss watchmaker who was only in 2008 but who creates very interesting and original automatic watches. Has anyone heard of them?

I've never heard of them but that watch sure looks interesting! I like the concept with the 6, 9 and 12 rotating but am thinking it would be a lot easier to read with only windows instead of a whole skeleton dial. How big is that bad boy?

What's the price range for a newcomer in terms of watchmaking?

Many thanks for the comments. The case width is 44mm and has a water resistance of 200m. This particular model costs 1,100 euros.
