Sandblasted dial Hour and minute hands are gloss finished on one half and matte on the other half... so many details you just don't see. Here is another platinum watch where you can see the effect of the light on the hands (this one has a different dial and stuff.) *maybe we should take this to the watch forum...

The cone of shame. She has an infection on her foot and will not stop licking it.

Dude I can't get over the 7077. The movement finish on the face really kills me. But I also love the tourbillon movements.

As with most things, there is actually more to it. They actually had to invert the way the watch was made. Usually, those things that you see are behind the top plate and facing the other way. In this case, they literally built the movement backwards to get this look. Breguet invented the chronograph, so... they can do whatever they want. hehe... Also, it is called chronograph because the hand didn't use to stop. It was more of a clock and a piece of paper was fitted beneath it and when you pressed the pusher, it would make a mark on the paper... chrono- (time) -graphy (writing). This was 1822. In 1820 he made a pocket watch with 2 hands to measure elapsed time... that was really the true forerunner to a chronograph.
