The Roman hours and the guilloche they did on the platine is very nice IMHO. I would probably get the silver or blue if I didn't already have a version 1. Although I rarely wear it on the bracelet, I'd still get the bracelet version.
I don't see the chiming as a gimmick though. It literally is a reminder to me of the passing of time (LOL quite literally the sonnerie au passage) because often I get lost in work (borderline OCD) while at my desk. It sort of snaps me out of my trance.
