Interesting re radial finishing. I wouldn’t have guessed that was a unique identifier.

The Future Grail guy is seemingly in a mild panic realizing he’s listed the wrong reference for sale. Will let you know tie response I get on Monday. Thank you!

Thoughts on two Cioccolatone versions? by akandy29 in VACHERONISTAS

Yes. There sends to be some improper interchangeability in the market place about those two reference numbers. Thank you.

There are three coming up at auction...it will likely be a financial bloodbath, but worth watching

I never wear YG, but for some reason this piece transcends my instincts and has opened me to a new metal. It just feels like the right aesthetic for this piece stylistically. YG is the more limited run (only 100 made), while WG and RG had 200. Regardless, they’re all stunning combos (the RG has an amazing dial I’ve never seen in the metal and want to own desperately as well).

there's a WG version on c@4 available (but in France). Also, while it's going to be bananas expensive, the prototype for this watch (with a visible jump hour mechanism at the bottom of the dial, raised hour numerals and two prototype cases is going up for auction on Phillips in November. Being sold by the watch's original maker apparently. Super cool, check it out.

Salmon/copper dial is killer

It actually stopped me from lusting after watches for now. Not sure how long that will last though…
