nice concept, this watch has a lot action in to it. nice to watch the jump of the minutes hands. and it's nice too to keep an eye on the power reserve, we're always aware when the tank needs to be refilled.
Growing up as a car guy from Detroit in the 1960s, I do love the unique dashboard styles of that era, and I do like the look of these watches. However, the price is too steep for me. For comparison, I had bought this Autodromo Stradale based on the Italian sports car dashboard dials of the 1960s. It's not a retrograde dial, but has hour markers on a clear, raised ring floating over the dial. It went for almost $1000 with a Miyota movement, which was also pretty high, but I loved the look of it enough to finally buy it.
That RESERVOIR watches remember me Gerald Genta designs I like a lot the design of the watch, but not enough to pay that price
^ funny you mentioned genta. Was eager to get my genta yesterday monday that’s why i felt wearing the reservoir last sunday.
i don't know why but it's hard to tell the time. imo your eyes do not want to down and up and around...or there's too much dial or not the best layout the mickey genta is much easier to tell the time....
I find the Reservoir very easy to read. The white hour wheel stands out against the black dial, and the large minute hand points to large minute markers.
Both Genta and Reservoir need getting used to. But once you’re synced, both are fairly easy to read. No second hands though. But nice dials both.
it's looks interesting and unique, but definitely without the beams and engine lights lights it would look more appealing .
