What I am getting at is lately I sometimes look at what is on my wrist and I can't believe how much I spent on such a small thing.  Did the look, feel, finish, movement, dial, case live up to what I see in the pictures?  Is it worth it smile  My answer is still yes even though I occasionally question the cost.  I agree with you that this is about as good as it gets, there have been some independent reviews of minute repeaters out there and Vacheron was at the top of all of them.  They don't make as many models as Patek but the ones they produce are as good or better than anything Patek is making.  Thanks for sharing your moment with the watch.
