Christophe Claret’s Soprano Tourbillon Minute Repeater Takes the Stage
Christophe Claret, known for creating complicated timepieces with tourbillons and repeater mechanisms, has released his most ambitious such model yet, called the Soprano. The watch’s signature features are its 60-second tourbillon, stepped “Charles X” bridges made of sapphire, and a musically accurate four-note minute repeater striking Westminster chimes on cathedral gongs.A traditional minute repeater tells the time audibly with two notes created from two small hammers striking two gongs: one for the hours, one for the minutes and a combination of the two for the quarter hours.

Ridiculous First World Concern - Please Enable Me!
I love my RO (15400). I wear it most days, and dress fairly casually generally (jeans and t-shirt or jeans and long sleeved shirt with casual jacket usually). I have a nagging concern which is getting naggier (!) - I'm not an extrovert, loud or attention seeking character at all, and I wonder if the watch is slightly too blingy for me for every day wear. Despite being mostly brushed, the design of course means that it catches the light and sparkles very obviously. I like this personally, but don't want to be seen as showing off!Silly right? Why should I care what other people think? Plus I have no real evidence that the watch is seen as such anyway ... nobody has ever commented on it (which is how I like it), but I just wonder what they're thinking!I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Sizing a Nautilus bracelet (pin version)
Good afternoon,Could a more knowledgeable member of the forum help with a how-to re the above ? The watch in question is a 2014 5712/1a. There's nothing in the manual on how to do it and both the search function on here and Google are letting me down.A weblink, or a couple of tips, would be very much appreciated indeed.
