Looks great. I would personally be ok with no PR if it makes the movement stable and keeps the thickness to within gen spec. Definitely on the list, I need a tourbillion

From what I'm reading the PR seems non functional but I would love to be wrong. It mentions the tourbillion is same Hz as gen but no mention of PR and considering the thickness....

Thanks, I love being proved wrong. I already asked to place a preorder for this one. I''m leaning RG Black or "Plat"/White

I asked my TD, she said PR is working so all thats left is to wair for QC.

ALSO! They messed up the engraving for the Platnium rep. The caseback says AU750 lol it should be Pt950 🤣

I GL'd. Biggest worry is this movement tbh.

+12s/day 321 amp at 0.2ms beat error. Which is acceptable if not high amp.

Second thing : look at caseback. I think for the caseback is for gold. It is ok but for Pt they got several things wrong but I strongly doubt this will ever have a v2.

No serial number (i.e 06/50) since Plat is limited to 50 worldwide. Marking is like Au750 version with a VC cross marking instead

Sorry, to make it clearer. The case back used is technically the gold version case back before plating I think.

The markings for the Platinum version should have a serial number engraved (i.e No 11/50 or No 06/50). But instead you can see a VC marking.

Additionally the marking (Au750) is for gold.

Not a big deal, since the real watch is 280k and you'll never see it in real life, like ever. But just a little review on what I can see so far.

Need to get one, they look really nice
I wanna see what quality is like on the first one. If it's good I'll pick up gold and black for sure.

After the Clean Platona. hahaha.

These kind of models, they don't stay for very long since they aren't popular.
