OVERALL RATING: 8.4/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a watch for movement purists. The meteorite dial is the best movement technology under $15,000. A Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8900 offers METAS certification, 60-hour reserve, and Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology validation that exceeds COSC standards. At $10,900, the design will leave you loving it or hating it plus the 50M water resistance is really inadequate for this price.

@Warren Money here is a view of my sickness/addiction…ahem, collection. As you will see, it’s pretty wide ranging in styles and in price range. I almost missed a few while putting them in the boxes so the last 2 pictures are a mish-mash of styles.
