the 'papillon' system.
I like the original watch case and still regret not getting one at the time. That's how it works...MIMO (miss it miss out).
I was not attracted to the 2nd generation of papillon case because it had too many scratch attracting surfaces.
This latest design looks good (satin finish)......not so shiny to be scratch magnets AND one of my favourite complications.....time travel
OK...not actual time travel but a travel time indication.....95% perfect. It would have been 100% if they could have incorporated the stupid 30 min time zone diferences that some countries use.
An old model Daniel Roth Cosmopolitan even had the daylight saving time pusher....would that be for the 110% rating?

The ellipsocurvex case is a favorite of mine when it comes to shaped cases. The Papillon line works very well with this dual time complication. I can totally tell the time in both zones with ease -- and with the Papillon's signature flair. It's a beautifu...

The case design is seductive. This new version is very innovative.
Good to see more Papillon watches...

I am not a fan of the design, I think the secnod time zone is too small and the larger minute index strange, but I am glad the Papillon line is expanding; it is a clever and distinctive watch. - SJX
