What is in your opinion the most impressive horological achievement/ complication
Not looking at a specific brand but in general, what complication do you appreciate the most when talking about watches.
Let me give you my opinion about the 3 that will probably be the top 3 1/ minute repeater Tbh it’s the most expensive but imo also the most useless. Never cared about it at all. And tbh I barely hear a difference between a mediocre and what should be a good one… and believe my I’ve seen most of them 2/ tourbillon For others this is by far top notch in a watch. And while I appreciate it I have 2 remarks. First it’s as good as useless in a wristwatch, only had a major positive impact in a pocket watch. Second …. Imo if you would buy you have to pay an insane amount cause the Chinese crap for 1 k and even tag heuer and chronoswiss at 15 k do not do it any justice. Going for this grande complication you have to go all in and that means SUPER finishing. So think about AP, Breguet, patek, Girard Perregaux, Vacheron 3/ perpetual calendar Well once it was probably useful but today we use our laptop, tablet …. I know, this can be said about watches in general… who needs one anyway ? So what is your dream (grand) complication…. And why ?
