Deeply disappointed
Discussion
Not quiet, just on another forum.
Not disappointed with having purchased one – since I haven't – and I'll not dignify the other 'disappointed with…' remark.
Bottom line, I was under the distinct impression Lorne designed this all himself, and have said in the past how I'd like one.
Turns out he's copied Corum's Romvlvs dial almost completely, and the bezel.
Only due to the movement chosen for use, was he forced to re-arrange the layout and date window position, which was also kept round.
If none of you see a problem with Lorne's passing his off as all his own work, then that's your prerogative, but I find it very disappointing to have realised its look has already been done before, and because it was a relatively unknown and unseen model, so chosen as a safe one to use.
