for the informative and elaborate report on the ownership experience of your Remontoire. I am contemplating ordering a stainless steel model which is even lighter! I have tried on the watch twice at the SIHH and at Basel three weeks ago so your feedback is most valuable to me, The watch is undoubtedly beautiful but for me accuracy is no less important so it is good to know that it has been behaving well in this area smile

Was really eager to see the remontoire in metal last time I visited a Gronefeld AD, but it wasn't available. These photos really whetted my appetite once again. The 3 pieces you put together make such a confident and sophisticated collection. Big congrats...

You have a wonderful looking watch. I am thinking of ordering one and now that you have had it for 8 months, could you please let me know if it has been keeping good time and has proven reliable? Thank you and well done on the world class photos!!
