New arrival... succuming to temptation....

As some of you know, I've been thinking of a certain watch for awhile and while I tried very hard to prevent myself from purchase, it finally happened today... I have no one to blame but myself... Without further adieu, say hi to my Extra Thin Tourbillon! It's mesmerizing!

Big congrats!! Can you share a pic of the movement from the back when you get a chance? Would love to see how it looks and have not had a chance to see it before.

Einstein would be a bit irritated that your watch is contravening the laws of gravity

Stunning watch. A true grail.
