if my banker was a little more understanding, I would already be the plane. I love this one. Similar movement as the Cartier Tortue monopoussoir

Oops, I mean "they are" our wives

but the "instrument de vitesse" is a little kitsch on the dial. Useless

Right.

Same problem on the Massena Doctors watch version, but it was worse there because of the subdial. This one gets away with it until you turn it over, like so many center seconds time only watches.

that is very kind of you

You wanted to say "bankster" ...

Bankster was used quite often actually: In the aftermath of the big depression in a round 1923 and in the aftermath of the U.S. mortgage colaps from 2008, that was sold to people with a more "acceptable" name of "credit crunge".

Beautiful, but…

I would pair that lovely movement with a 36mm case
