Star Wheel
Does anyone own a Star Wheel and any thoughts on it?
These seem pretty rare, one for auction right now on Christie's HK |

I own a platinum version. It's a really beautiful and rare watch, although you have to remember that it's only 36mm wide, so if you have a big wrist, maybe it's not the best watch for you.
Here's a close-up of the dial: I think it's gorgeous. |

This is cool. I was trying to figure out how it works. Does the minute track travel around the perimeter meeting up with the correct hour marker? Or perhaps the center track circles around? Brilliant looking watch.

The guillauche one in blue and other variances ( the purple sold for over 35k) and the hand engraved on in PT. There are very few ones of the last variation and that makes them the most valued among the series one. The purple was a one of and there might also be a red one around. |
