Yet Another Hodinkee LE
This time it's a GMT watch from Laurent Ferrier. Blue enamel dial, titanium case. 15 pieces, $60K a piece. Sorry guys but it's already sold out

Re: Yet Another Hodinkee LE
All that money and they couldn't make an appropriately sized date window?

The window at 9 is the home time display, but point taken.Chocodove wrote:All that money and they couldn't make an appropriately sized date window?

Pricing is nutz......
Re: Yet Another Hodinkee LE
date window is stupid.....
Re: Yet Another Hodinkee LE
Now I'm positive that Hodinkee pre-sells these. No way a watch like that would sell out instantly upon introduction.
Re: Yet Another Hodinkee LE
rather than showing the date, or the date-the day before-the day after, we chose to show the date and a partial before and after date.....STUPID>

Re: Yet Another Hodinkee LE
I really like it except for that date window...
Re: Yet Another Hodinkee LE
Well they figured out the formula to be able to sell whatever watch it is for redonculous prices, no matter how nice or ugly it may be.
Re: Yet Another Hodinkee LE
not a date window...numeric gmt, hence why it is useful to see where it is in relation to the next and previous numerals
Re: Yet Another Hodinkee LE
That would drive me nuts like a broken date window. IWC UTC had a more elegant solution

Re: Yet Another Hodinkee LE
even if not a date, and its a GMT it still looks dumb.....It could be a countdown timer to til the end of the world and it would look dumb.
Re: Yet Another Hodinkee LE
I like LF watches, but not enough to ever buy one, even if I could afford them.
Re: Yet Another Hodinkee LE
regardless of price, total pass.
