Does this board have a quarter of these in the country? From what I understand there's only a dozen in the US so far.

Can't wait for the big date version, but looking at their current collection lineup it doesn't seem so sure, unless they are coming with a new movement.

Moser hit it out the park with this one. The design is probably polarizing but it’s so unique. I’m strongly considering getting this piece. Congrats to all who have received one!

Its very cool indeed, congrats. Was a big fan of Moser until i watched an interview with the CEO on watches.tv. The guy is full of himself. Rubbed me off the wrong way

If you feel that way about arrogance, you're gonna have to stop buying most of these watch companies....

This is why I like some of the Indie brands: E.g. Roger Smith, Kari Voutilainen, Richard Habring. Rexhep Rexhepi. They genuinely seem like very nice people that are in it for the love of watches and fine mechanics not for ego reasons.

Out of the majors, I like the ethos of Lange the most. I have briefly met Wilhelm Schmid a few times, and he genuinely seems like a very pleasant guy that love collecting watches (and cars!) as much as we do.

I hear you, but two things can be true. You can produce amazing watches and have a positive and welcoming attitude. i.e. Xavier de Roquemaurel of Czapek.

No need to bring the high nosed take it or leave it attitude.

I've seen many video interviews with Moser CEO as I was researching this watch and never felt it was arrogance. I think confidence and vision for the brand.

I wonder if these can still be had with little to no wait from ADs or if they are all spoken for.

I have been in contact with the local AD about this one and it certainly isn’t in stock without wait. They indicated to me last night that there has been COVID delays and they were only getting one yet this year and then a couple more early next year.

This Streamliner Center second or AP Royal Oak 37mm might be my next watch. I know it’s a long shot, but anyone own both and don’t mind sharing some pictures?

I live the Laurent Ferrier Grand Sport, but I will never be able to afford it.

That one, it's not *completely* impossible...

I think I may just have to put in my order and wait. This thing is too good to pass up.

I got this couple of weeks ago and can't take it off.

No more feelings for the 5711

Mine is currently getting serviced for a rotor that gets stuck and won't continue spinning to wind the watch. Hopefully I get it back soon.
