Wow, your jaw must have hit the ground. Truly a magnificent piece of art. The most unique watch I've seen up close was a Platinum Ulysse Nardin Freak DIAMonSIL which is about $100K less than this RD.

Ralph Schumacher DTM driver and ex Formula 1 driver wore those watches.

There are many Russian millionaires, heck, billionaires even, out there. Lots of money, and no time for fakes. My money is on it being real. I've seen some Russian shopping sprees in Singapore and Hong Kong. Impressive, but sad.

Wow!
Not a bad looking watch for a 1/4 million dollars!
And a double tourbillon to boot.

Making it doubly redundant.

It's supposed to be a dual escapement regulation system, but apart from sounding fancy, Roger Dubuis have not been forthcoming on the reasons for the system.

Im still having nightmares of that watch encounter man its like his clinging a ferrari on his hands...
