We should all be so lucky.

I recently tried on the Marine Royale Alarm and am in love...
I dream about and lust over this watch hahaha.
Unfortunately with my 6.8 in wrists and it's 45 mm it just looks silly on me.
Small wrists are the biggest curse for a watch addict I tell ya!

Very cool Thomas! The guillouché on that dial is mesmerizing

What's the third hand for? It's not moving in the video so I guess it's not a seconds hand

Man. I like the idea and all, but just don't think it's for me.

I have to agree Ken!
The concept and technicality is amazing......but there's quite a few others in this niche that I'd rather follow.

Is this for real? Did we really invent such a thing?

...I think this watch is incredible! Thank you for sharing Thomas!

It's probably not for everybody but it sure is my type of thing! I definitely agree with you on the appreciation of the piece itself.

...Now what if they add a chronograph in this watch?

I can see the usefulness of a Sonnerie and even for a minute repeater but a music box? Cool complication but useless to me.

Well Breguet sure knows how to make dials
The third hand is for setting the alarm.

Maybe the music would wake me, but I'd then rush to wake up just to watch the dial spin.

Thanks for the post.
