It's a fantastic piece and one of Richard's signature complications IMO. To my mind the Habring2s to own are this doppel, the jump seconds foudroyante, and the tourbillon.
Enjoy your new beauty!
Cheers,

An arrival from Austria...
By: Gary G : May 25th, 2012-14:07
A happy day yesterday, with the arrival of a new piece from Austria via San Diego... As usual, the first step is to assemble the ceremonial watch opening rug and William Henry box opener: Very clever internal packaging -- certainly keeps the watch isolate...

CONGRATULATIONS! You just patronised (is that the correct term?) one of the most exciting watches (and makers) currently. I hope ( and I am sure) you'll enjoy that watch very much! Cheers, Magnus
Thanks, Magnus!

I am already enjoying the watch quite a bit -- a lovely piece for travel and weekend wear. Best, Gary

Watch this space!

The "hand" is a favorite of mine! Always fun to see people's eyes when I turn it on... Best, Gary

How I long to see those words again ... Actually, I was really intrigued when I saw that internal packing for the first time. Even kept the packing for a week or two to see if I could use it for something else. Congratulations. Its a beautiful watch. Rega...
Thanks, Richard

Perhaps you will be getting another piece sometime soon! I am definitely keeping that shipping box, as it will come in handy for a future watch sale, I am sure. Best, Gary
Oh and by the way...

I see you've also fallen victim to Monsieur Busser's M.A.D. Gallery. As I told Max recently, I took a look and ended up buying a few of the Bohm Stirling engines. Regards, Richard.

Of course, every time I look at those orange accents I am reminded of you! Isn't it great to have a whole color to yourself? Best, Gary
Lovely Dopel

Please do share more of your thought after you wear it. Congrat Gary
congrats ..and ...nice carpet too...
By: cmclee : May 26th, 2012-07:43
congrats on your lovely timepiece ! Sorry I was distracted by the carpet in the background. Is that a isfahan or Serafin ? Cheers !
I must confess
By: Gary G : June 5th, 2012-19:37
...that I lack carpet expertise! Definitely Persian in origin, but otherwise I do not know -- I'll go back through various folders and see whether I can find the documentation. Best, Gary
One of the master complication.......
By: Topcat30093 : May 28th, 2012-13:15
Congratulations Gary, you have excellent tastes. Like Oliver, I too would have gone for the grey dial................But then again I personally have NO imagination Regards Tony
As I said to Oliver
By: Gary G : June 5th, 2012-19:38
...watch this space! Dials can be changed, you know Best, Gary
Agree!

I have seen this method used in smaller boxes for watch transport, but never on this large scale. Very clever indeed. Best, Gary
