Couple of people who saw it in real told me the same. Even TS mentioned that he had divided opinions from his staff.

However this is the first regular production stainless steel Calatrava since 1970s so the demand will be very high and secondary market will command a significant premium at least for the first few years.

It's all about opinions, I prefer a less busy dialhence why I didn't buy into it, but good luck to anyone who buys it

I reserve judgement until I see it in the flesh in the next couple of weeks

You like these shoes? I hate them expensive and low quality. I only bought them because the wife needed me to build a relationship to buy her birkin bags. Now that shes engaged on the watches i can go back to buying cheap shoes.

I tried to buy her this today so i can commondere her 5990 vs borrow it. But she didnt like it...if it was steel it wod have happened . I liked it on my wrist tho. 37mm tho

This is your perfect watch. I can’t for the life of me tell if it has a date complication, so no need to set it. Hell, you don’t even need to set the time because I can’t read that either....
