Up close (but not yet personal) with the Concord C1 QuantumGravity

Not too long ago on this blog I put forth a healthy dose of skepticism (Feb 26:???? New Detail Emerges on the Concord C1 QuantumGravity) as to the potential of the unconventional and nonconforming Concord C1 QuantumGravity watch.???? I further questioned the QuantumGravitys ability to live up to expectations that were being set by an effusive and over-the-top marketing campaign in the lead up to Baselworld 2009.Now after seeing some live photos and now live video of this watch, I confess that I am even more intrigued by it, but in a good way.???? The Concord C1 QuantumGravity is growing on me!???? What can I say it seems that my dismay was not with the watch itself but its verbose and uneccesarily elaborate pre-Basel marketing campaign!On closer study and reflection, helped by superb videos like this and photos like this I am of the opinion that the C1 QuantumGravity and all its craftsmanship, creativity and sheer ingenuity is worthy of praise.???? As is the construction of???? not 1 but 10 of these watches Im sure that stringing those cable-stayed bridges is no small feat!???? On a technical level, the C1 QuantumGravitys credentials speak for themself the bi-axial tourbillon, the brilliant (day or night) vertical power reserve, and the cleverly constructed winding crown are just a few noteworthy features of this cutting-edge watch.I dare say this watch has lived up to its mysterious and unconventional ways, and I hope to one day see it in person whereupon I can render final judgement!Picture by Bernard Werk @ WatchingKyle Stults is Founder President of Perpetuelle.com, a new online community for watch owners, collectors enthusiasts.
