The timepiece Grand cushion in blue is a very nice watch and I originally wanted a stainless band watch but I honestly like the blue band with cork. The stainless option is just a standard band made for many watches, it’s not that great. I wish the red hand moved with each second that passes but that is for the chrono function. This watch is just stunning to look at. It would look nice in a brushed steel look I believe. The price was way higher than I expected to pay for a wrist watch but I haven’t seen anyone with this style and I liked it. Bringing the price down would help you sell more watches for sure. All in all thank you Mondaine.
