Of all the independants, van der Klaauw is my favorite

Because he is the only one still around specializing in my favorite complications- astronomical ones! Thomas Prescher a close second. Someday, I will have enough to buy one his pieces. They're quite reasonable, as I remember, compared to other independant... 

The tourbillon needs better presentation IMO

Looks kind of awkward. Then again, I haven't seen the watch in person and am only making my opinion from seeing these pictures. - AT

Any idea when the final version is scheduled for?
