Assuming that this is a true peripheral rotor
Mar 22, 2009,10:05 AM
instead of a 'mystery' rotor with central transparent (crystal or plexiglass) portion, as they say, it may allow more space at the back for modules and complications. But why? Not that many people are complaining that they don't want their modules on the dial side of the movement.
Even if the rotor is 'efficient' enough for regular achievement of 55h reserve, what is the advantage of having a backside to stick on more modules but have to engineer solutions to a fundamental rotor problem? It can't be just to look at the finishing on the bridges because all those straight lines are not really artisanal.......
Would the cachet of having a 'true' peripheral rotor be enough to attract the regular customer?
This is not a comment on the engineering; I leave that to the experts. I'm just asking a Regular Joe question.

Hello Graham! Glad you liked the post! I actually like the contrast of a black rubber bezel and crown accents of the Patravi DayDate but then again I have a rubberclad that I wear often. They will be offering more with the A1000 movement in the near futur...
