Most significantly, you’re getting a rarely-seen complication at a value that’s nicely below something comparable. The one actual competitor on this house would have been the now-discontinued Jaeger-LeCoultre Geophysic True Second, which, at launch in 2015, retailed at $9,050. Positive, you have been getting way more model recognition with JLC and an revolutionary stability wheel referred to as the Gyrolab, however in my view, which piece affords extra horological significance is debatable. I might argue that Richard Habring’s historic contributions to watchmaking shine within the Erwin. Plus, the Geophysic was barely bigger (39.6mm) and thicker (11.7mm), although it did supply automated winding.
