| Jump hours are interesting but those are unappealing to me. Exposed interior dials do nothing for me at all - and this from the guy who LOVES display casebacks. Working mechanisms are terrific to watch, dials for their own sake being exposed  |

| Wow..You don't see these every day !..It's excellent how you can see all of those wheels and different parts inside the watch. The way that plate is on the front is also eye-catching !..It's definitely an exceptional watch IMHO.  Even the inside of the watch has an amazing type of guilloche too !  It's IMPRESSIVE ! ____________________________________  | |

| I like jump hour watches in general (especially vintage ones), but I'm not a fan of open insides. | |

| I agree, PC. The Lange, yes; the Journe, not so much. |

| The first one doesn't grab me but I really like the A.Lange & Sohne. I like variety and that is certainly unique while remaining stylish. | |

| Holy COW Mike !!!  They REALLY do make a watch like this ! Well..let me first say that this is definitely UNIQUE ! It might even be an AWESOME conversation piece for someone. Not necessarily my kind of watch !..I guess not every watch is a "serious" one though !..So, in conclusion..Unique-Yes, Awesome- To some people. For me-Well..not really !..How about that case and dial though ?! ____________________________________ | |
