An autumn day with my HBB RG tourbillion

Hi there,

It is a sunny autumn day, just the right time of the year to see how time goes by....by watching my HBB tourbillon circle around, once per minute. When it comes to HBB’s, you “love’m or hate’m” and with a tourbillon it is similar. So even say it makes them nervous this swinging-pulsing heart...

Well it took me a long time to spend 748USD on a watch, but I love as you might have guessed from some posts HBB’s and I also love tourbillions...so there was no way out in the end!

As a rep it is not very accurate vs. the gen, but I do not care!

Enough said, here some pics, all as usual untouched by any program.

Regards,

Dutchy

P.S. I am mostly happy with the watch, but the print on the case back is a poor. I had asked to have a RG case back and not a black one.

P.S.S. The case is RG-brushed and I ordered a RG-brushed bezel along with it, just to see if it looks better in this combination, then if the standard supplied brushed black bezel. I have not made up my mind...what do you think? Maybe even with a polished black bezel?

I'm no fan of HBBs, but that really is a thing of beauty :good::drinks:

PS I'd vote for the original bezel. Not that I'm a stickler for 'factory stock', but I think the graining of the bezel complements the dial more than the other two options :good:

Looks very good. I can't believe that they can make so detailed dials.

I'm with TeeJay, the black brushed one, same reason too. Second choice would be the RG one.
