I have at the boutique in NYC when I was looking at some watches for my mother's 60th. It's a very cool piece, but I'd never buy a VCA watch - there's no discount and you get killed resale. Plus, the planets in person look like little pieces of candy.

van der Klauw makes nicer planetarium pieces I believe.

That VC&A piece is made by CvdK.

1.) what time does it say in the picture?
2.) maybe I'm just not seeing it, but I think it's missing a couple of planets right?

02:45 if I'm reading it correctly.

Nightmare to reset if you forgot to put it on the winder when you went on holiday!

That's very cool, I like such cluttered dials, so much things are going on there
