That query highlights my solely different vital points with the watch. First, at CHF 50,000 it feels priced barely larger than I’d anticipate for a metal case, even of this high quality. A manually-wound Basic Origin prices CHF 33,000 with a Swiss lever escapement, no date, and a reasonably compelling grade-5 titanium case. A metal Basic Micro-Rotor – as I discussed earlier than – is simply CHF 5,000 extra, with a bit extra horological “oomph” behind it. The Sport Auto, with a full titanium case and bracelet, is CHF 48,000. Wanting on the numbers, I would have anticipated this watch to be nearer to CHF 40,000.
