Hi Bill, I really like the idea of having to press the mono pusher on the crown to tell the time as well as the pusher at the 9 for GMT on the Dressage L' Heure Masquee, it really adds a uniqueness and personal touch to this watch. For me, it basically gives you an excuse to continually interact with this timepiece on multiple occasions throughout the day...LOVE IT Thanks for sharing this one mate

Hi Alexander, check out agenhor.ch/en/realizations/ and tab through the various watches that Agenhor have agenhor complications or movements ... you'll find a lot of Hermès worth a second look. However, the Bvlgari Octo Roma is hard to beat for horological bang for the buck. Take care, Bill

@@watchartsci Thnx Bill. Yeah i know. Had a chance to pick up Channel J12 for decent money but passed up on it as well. To me somehow when a jewelry firm tries to cross over into watches, it's lesser of a problem than an apparel firm. Tomorrow Salvatore Ferragamo may buy shares in Brabus and start making cars but you won't catch me driving one. If I was dead set on getting an Aghenor based watch, I'd probably look elsewhere in the industry. Octo I like the look of it, new brand/new shape in the collection and no knock against it as it is a fully in-house watch and the shape/design that's been penned by Genta (not that I care for Genta that much).
