I think the Code Chrono looks amazing, but is a total joke at $42K. For that money, I’m buying a Patek 5205R or Patek Pilot.

That one is a gorgeous piece- I Love the detail on the moon. What was retail price? Thanks , james in San Antonio.

Completely agree with what you’re saying and I wouldn’t buy it myself but the pricing is consistent with in-house automatic flybacks across the higher tier brands

Cheers! Price is $75k. For the moon, they asked NASA for their highest res image of the moon and tried to shrink it down to that size and it seems they did a good job capturing the resolution
