What is the significance of the slightly modified XI ?

It’s funny, I’m very conflicted on the best way to approach a KV.


No question, like you have done, a classic and timeless execution has a lot of merit.

But, on the flip side, I question myself as to whether that is a worthwhile route.  With a clean page and pencil in hand surely it’s time to make one’s mark and take advantage of all the tools at one’s disposal.

How did you arrive at this one? Was it clear from the outset that the goal was KISS (keep it simple stupid)?

So much to talk about, the dial, the hands, the lugs, thanks for sharing!

Rare to see a “less is more” Vingt-8.

Well done on resisting the urge to go off piste on color combinations. I honestly believe this will stand the test of time much better.

Hmmmmm! Sublime!

Spectacular in its restrained colors and guilloché patterns. May you never tire of it!
