Very tempting, I think they've actually done a decent job of incorporating the Mario elements, rather than just surface-level changes, there's a lot of unique components in there and the regular chrono is about £3.5k and limited to 3000 apparently..

The regular chrono doesn’t have a glass case back unfortunately

Big pilot 43, wonderfully simple dial vs the display case back.

Love this Blancpain, quite a bit going on the dial but it's lovely.

Saw this in the flesh at the weekend and looked it up. Really like this.

Also saw the Octo Finnisimo which I’ve always admired but they did look rather large.

I missed this when it was released-what on earth is a falcon's eye dial anyway?! No idea but I do particularly like it. I presume like meteorite dials this will be exclusive to the VVIPs?

No, no, it really isn't Will. It's cheesy nonsense.

Good to get the definitive authority on this.

Personally, I really like it.

Here we go, the new £400,000 45mm Speedmaster.











Nice box but the watch is the price of a house

Apparently so, minute repeaters are very complex and expensive but it does feel a little excessive.
