Greubel Forsey Takes a Subtler Approach with its Tourbillon 24 Secondes Vision
The name Greubel Forsey conjures up many images among horological connoisseurs but classically simple dials and elegantly thin cases are probably not among them �� at least until now. With the release of the Greubel Forsey Tourbillon 24 Secondes Vision, the 11-year-old brand founded by Robert Greubel and Stephen Forsey proves that it can do “quiet” just as well as it does “loud.”Introduced at SIHH 2015, alongside such super-complex timepieces as the new GMT Black and QP �� Equation, the Greubel Forsey Tourbillon 24 Secondes Vision drew immediate attention for its comparative simplicity. However, it would be a mistake to characterize it as the most “ordinary” piece in the brand’s lineup (who knew we’d ever get to a point in the watch world when any watch with a tourbillon could be considered ordinary) �� the renowned Greubel Forsey inventiveness is indeed on display here, only in much subtler ways, for the most part.Of course, there is the de

15400 vs 15202
As someone with a 7 flat wrist, a 44 feels like it fits my wrists as a glove (personal opinion of course). I tend to favor watches with a bit of heft. While doing some homework between the 15400 and 15202, I gathered that many people feel that the 15202 may be better proportioned, thus the result of a slimmer and smaller case. I really like the dial of the jumbo, especially the AP lettering towards the Southern Hemisphere. However, being that my body type happens to fall in the category of 'I enjoy stuffing my face', dial versus heft, I would choose the weight of the 15400. The only problem is I have not been able get my hands on a jumbo to experience the difference. Are the weights of the two quite similar or is there a noticeable difference? Also, I noticed that the 15400 has a 3120 movement while the jumbo has a 2121 movement; is there any difference in the two movements? I am not knowledgeable on the two movements. Thanks.
