Rotor was noisier than I expected but no biggie.

some great photos. Good read even if a little OTT gushing. They’re not wrong though about designs though. Both treatments to Jack Heuer’s classic design.
Only wish is now that they’d release a bracelet 😜

The only drawback for watch to me is the noisy winding of the rotor. I did not notice it when I checked out an 85th Anniversary Autavia. Maybe that was due to closed case back. Either way I love the design. I find the size and look brings the vintage aesthetic without the trappings of a vintage watch. Column wheel, vertical clutch, 80hrs power reserve and 100 meters water resistance are great pluses for me. I haven’t found a strap that doesn’t look good and a Fostner flat link is filling the bracelet option when I need it.

·Maybe the sapphire caseback, the smaller size of the case and different rotor-desing are causing the 'noisy' winding.
For me the sound and feel of the rotor is nothing but cool. I really like to be reminded of the watch on my wrist and the mechanics inside.

·For a very nice design and watch package, if you don’t want to spend, you’ll definitely look and find faults. That’s how you reason it out to yourself 😵💫
How can it be not in proportion? Your angle plays tricks on you. 🤨

·You are correct, but consider that English may not be the poster's first language.
True, that wasn't really the point I was making though.... it was a double joke which I can't be bothered to explain because it won't be funny.
Plenty of English people can't spell either. Or use apostrophe's...
Ooh there I go again, I just can't help myself can I?
😗
Mind you, what with Google and Microsoft telling me I've spelled words incorrectly when I haven't, it's not surprising people are confused.

·@Aquagraph on the bright side. It was the lugs he/she picked on. Glassbox must have been a winner in “they’re” eyes 😜

·Clearly nobody told Jose and Danny that out of proportion lugs are a defining characteristic of the Carrera!

·So I showed my wife some watches last night, she said this watch was okay, but it needed some orange on it or something.
