Thank you for the report / An astonishing bad decision

The report was great and quick and the event obviously looked great also.
Now some comments on the new watch, as a first impression:
1) I would have expected PP to update the twenty4 collection, not by changing the shape of the case, but by putting a form automatic movement in the form case that already exists. Maybe increase the size also or come up with some new dial and diamond configuration for the automatic references. The art deco inspired design of the twenty4 collection is a very special and recognizeable case design and has historical roots for almost 20 years now. For PP standards it is a new collection, but nonetheless has created history.
2) The new round case design is nothing special and with the integrated bracelet looks similar to a million other watches. The dials look interesting, but get lost within the entirety of the watch. The pilot style numerals also serve no purpose within the context of the twenty4 collection.
3) I asked my wife if she would wear this watch and she instantly told me that she prefers a ladies Nautilus, like the 7118, over this.
Food for thought!
