From the picture looks like it fits nicely on your wrist. How do you find the weight? Quite a treat looking at the two tourbillon cage! Congrats.

A cool combination!

twin flying tourbillons, retrograde minutes and jumping hours- that's quite something! the case is platinum I assume? I'd love to see an image of the movement. I know it has very fine and thin Geneva stripes - it must be a pleasure to admire just for this... 

Maybe a silly question

Sorry, beautiful watch, and this might seem like a silly question, but I assume the hour hand just happens to be hidden below the minute hand in your picture, but if not, where is it? I like the retrograde minutes, nice touch. Dean

On a close view...

mevliya11, Thank you for sharing. I've never seen one on the wrist in-the-wild. It is rare. That bodes the question: Why did you choose this model when you have the resources to get any watch you want? ADDENDUM: My question is genuine and not disrespectfu...

seems to be quite a difference in terms of production quality (here I do not refer to construction quality but more to consistency and quality control). When I visited the manufacture for the first time they were immensely proud to tell me that their outp... 

Made addendum to my posted question for clarification

Ornatus-Mundi, Re-reading my posted question, I realise that it may have come across as being "aggressive" and disrespectful of the current brand products. It needed more explanation about the intent of the question. I made an addendum to clarify my quest... 

tourbillon problem

 
 By: mevliya11 : July 7th, 2013-10:29
as this double tourbillon produced before richmond group,there is a common problem which the power reserve is not enough for both tourbillons because they turn seperate ways(the new models turn same way)so the watch stay 2 hours back per day! hopefully I ... 

Some update regarding the two versions of the tourbillon

 
 By: Ornatus-Mundi : November 6th, 2013-12:52
Hi, according to Hugo Maia, Director of Watchmaking and Customer Service, there were 2 versions of the movement: - one (older – 2005-2008) where the Tourbillons turn in opposite directions - and a (new) version where they turn in the same (completely reco...

and I love roger dubuis style so much ,also I have golden square tourbillon and much more perpetual.....

Aha....a style choice

 
 By: MTF : July 7th, 2013-11:55
The design motifs at Roger Dubuis have changed many times in the last 14 years so it will be interesting to see what people make of the new styles in the last 2 years, when they drew clear lines between the three ranges. Regards, MTF

It would be also interesting to see how the style changed...
