This is an eighties/nineties B&M so likely TAG used the same DD module. A new idea to me but clearly not.

It's sort of interesting and I see that AP use the same module on their Royal Oak. At least it appears to be about half way down the page.

OK, the finish is clearly improved but it looks exactly the same. Like the way that guy writes about pressing the pushers imparting joy!

Cheers, Chris

Interesting link @ChrisN. It's obviously a matter or personal taste but I think the movement in that AP is far more attractive than the case it's in.

As I am the one who wrote the "Rolex vs Omega (not the usual stuff)" thread - I hope you did not percieved that thread as Rolex bashing? It was merely a comparison of the two brands to explain my theory about the mechanics of why the hype regarding patina/production flaws are different between the brands (and not totally - as there are Omegas that the theory applies to too).

I guess you read my post in this thread about my appriciation for Rolex?

No no i know you like Rolex 😉 I was referring to the people who responded to other threads (not your thread specifically).
